What were you doing when scouted? I was at the KU homecoming parade and pep rally.

Describe your style: My fashion style would be as cool as a mom can be and not feel 39.

Fashion trends you love: I love the oversized shirts with leggings or shorts right now. I also love high boots, over-the-knee boots and even ankle boots as well.

Fashion trends you hate: The high-waisted short shorts

Fashion influences: I would probably say emails that I get from department stores that I check out to see what is trending.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence? More people at the KU football game… Better parking downtown and less high-waisted shorts. Overall, Lawrence is really diverse and awesome, so I like how my two little boys can see it all!

Tattoos or piercings: Yes, I do have a tattoo of a fish.

Whom do people say you look like? Just recently someone said Kacey Musgraves. She just opened up for Katy Perry.  

What type of music do you like? I really like all types of music. As a fitness instructor I listen to so much, and I also put together all types of music for my classes. I like anything that makes you want to move around.

Tell us a secret: I can hold a Skittle in my dimples!
