What would you give a TedTalk on, even if no one asked for it?
How I prefer animals over people.

What is one food you could eat for the rest of your life, what is one you would destroy from the earth, and why?
One food I can eat for the rest of my life would have to be cherries, too bad they aren't year round. One food that I would make inedible would no doubt be all and any kind of processed meats since they are at high risk to cancer and heart disease and also fish because why would you want to eat raw fish, why do you like the fish taste.

What is your favorite memory of watching a sporting event, either in person or on TV?
One of my favorite memories of watching a sporting event was Michael Phelps' final Olympic race the men's 4x100 medley relay at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Watching him step up for that last swim, you could feel the weight of history, the pride of a nation, and the fire still burning in him after all those years. The way he pushed through that final leg, the way the entire team came together, and how they all fought not just for gold but for each other it was incredible. The passion, the unity, and the roar when they touched the wall first it was simply amazing to witness. It wasn’t just about one man’s legacy, it was about team, country, and the spirit of the Olympics. Gave me chills. There is always more to the sport than just a game.

What show did you binge-watch most recently?
I most recently binged watched "YOU" on Netflix.
