If you were a fruit, what would you be? And if you were a vegetable, which one?

I would be a coconut because it reminds me of summer, which is my favorite season! As a vegetable, I would be kale. I just love kale, especially dino kale!

Where is your favorite place to go on vacation?

The Amalfi Coast! I went with my family in the summer of 2023, and it was the most memorable trip I have been on.
 
 

What are the 3 best apps on your phone?

Instagram, Spotify, and Google Maps.

Are you a morning person or a night owl?

I am a night owl by nature, but I have made myself a morning person so I can wake up early to exercise.
 

Tell us something about you that most people don’t know.

I danced ballet and flamenco for several years growing up, and was learning how to play violin in the last few years.
