What is your favorite holiday and why? My favorite holiday is Halloween! Autumn is my favorite season; so comforting with all of the warm colors, pumpkins, and apple cider. Halloween is a time that you get to pretend to be something else and bring out your inner child. Plus, it's an excuse to share candy and memories with friends! 

What is your favorite quote? "I always get to where I'm going by walking away from where I have been" - Winnie the Pooh

Who is the most famous person you have encountered? What were they like? I met Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox from CHiPs! I used to volunteer with event registration at a large convention and was lucky enough to be able to meet some celebrities from many different shows and movies. However, I grew up watching CHiPs with my parents and I was so excited to be able to meet two of the actors I had been seeing on screen for years! They were both super friendly and were willing to take photos with me and sign autographs! 

If you could be any superhero, which one would you be? Why? If I could be any superhero, I would like to be either Doctor Strange or the Scarlet Witch. I would love to have some sort of magical powers, whether it be the ability to manipulate energy or just the general ability to cast spells! I love shows about magic and the supernatural so being able to add a little magic to my own life would be cool!
