  • Where do you live?: San Jose
  • Home Team: Family & Friends
  • Hometown: Manhattan Beach, CA (where my heart will always be) [Ed. note: Amen!]
  • Motivation: Honorees, dreams, friends & family, health, fun, and finding a cure for cancer
  • Honoree(s): All those who have and unfortunately will fight cancer. All my TNT Team Honorees since 1999, those still with us and those we’ve lost — They’ve all touched my heart and changed my life. And, of course, my uncles.
  • Favorite tri gadget(s): Aero Bars & Bike Computer
  • Last three books read: Breaking Back, A Child Called It, My Sister’s Keeper
  • Last three movies seen: Running with Scissors, The Departed, The Brave One
  • What person do you look up to the most and why? My Mom — She has a deep faith I strive to emulate, is kind, caring, selfless, intelligent, forgiving, loving, and, simply put, the most amazing women I’ve ever known. Also my youngest nephew — He’s so young and already gone though so much in his life & kept a good attitude and his sense of humor!
  • Favorite local cheap-eats restaurant: Falafel’s Drive-In (yes, it’s with an ’s, which makes it that much cooler!)
  • Desert Island Five: The Bible, a soccer ball, running shoes, my iPhone (gets me music, videos & pictures of family & friends, and maybe Wifi), and the quilt my Mom and I made together when I was a child
  • What did you want to be when you grew up? A professional soccer player, a teacher, an actress, a singer, a lifeguard
  • Middle name meme:
    Evolving; at least I hope so
    Inversus; ask me if your curious :)
    Lively; especially on the dance floor
    Emotional; often overly so
    Endurance; every triathlete possesses this quality
    Noisy; I’ve been told my voice carries :)
