What was your first job? Well, my first job out of college was working for the IRS in the Quality Department. Basically I tried to boost company morale and motivate employees to crunch numbers a little more accurately.
Would you go back and relive your teen years if you could? Only my first kiss! Having said that, I'm wondering if Shayna and Dwain will get after me!
What's the craziest, most out-of-character thing you've ever done? First of all, you need to understand that I'm a very safety-oriented, cautious person. When I was about 14, my boyfriend and I climbed Black Rock with a group of friends one Sabbath afternoon. Being the adventurous guy that he was, he jumped down onto a ledge. That looked like fun, and being the adoring girlfriend that I was, I followed. Well, I didn't quite make it, and I almost fell off the side of the mountain. The moral of the story is: Never jump after a man.
What's your favorite junk food item? I tell you, when those peanut butter chocolate eggs come out at Easter, I have to eat them--many of them. Godiva doesn't even come close!
What was your biggest disappointment in life? Before going back to school to finish a bachelor's degree, I got turned down for several jobs. So stay in school--you'll be glad you did!
Describe yourself: My sister accuses me of being obsessive-compulsive when it comes to organizing and cleaning. Yep, all the clothes in my closet are organized by color.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years? On a God-planned adventure that I don't yet know anything about.
What's your favorite Bible text? 1 John 5:14, "This is the
confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to
his will, he hears us" (NIV).*
