   I'm two years older than my brother, Michael, and I remember having to go with him to the art museum for humanities. I made up stories for so many pieces of work that made no sense! As if I knew what I was talking about ... it was quite entertaining for the both of us.

9. Why are you involved with the Alumni Association?
   During high school I was very involved, yearbook, journalism, executive council, ROTC, etc. In college, I went to class and went straight to work. I didn't get to enjoy the activities offered. By being on the board, I'm able to give back to ASU. I also received the John C. Bell Memorial Scholarship all four years of school, and its nice to know that the association I'm a part of also gives scholarships.

10. What is your favorite movie?
    I'm not a big movie buff but I do have a few favorites.  One is Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, a mix of Southern Charm and drama!  The Mummy Returns is another one, who doesn't love a cute tough guy being chased by goopy mummies!

11. What did you learn at ASU that is most valuable to you today?
    Take the time to look over, around, under or through the box to realize your opinion isn't the same as others.  (Basically, appreciate that we're all different.  You may not agree with choices, but that doesn't make you any better than the next guy.)

    I go to aerobics twice a week (Trish Seymour teaches is also an ASU student), love playing tennis, member of Sacred Heart Guild and of course, the ASU Alumni Association.

    I don't KNOW??!! My family, who is always there for me and has always supported me.

    Hawaii!  Went when I graduated ASU and it was so amazing. Closer to home though, I love going to Savannah and Tybee.

    The Lauderdale Golf Tournament.  Before being on the committee for the tournament I would not have realized how much planning goes into it.  But on that Friday, it all works right on schedule.

    Pink ... yes I'm girly.
