| Proudest tri moment |
After IMAZ my dad called to tell me I was the 20th woman overall. I told him I thought I was the 20th age grouper, and told me it was all women. I made him read me the top 3 women before I believed him it was top 20, including pros. |

| What I'd do if I won the lottery |
I'd buy the company I run and then hire someone to run it for me. Train for races and travel to do them. |
| Bonus Info |
I didn't want to move to Hawaii. I had lived all over the world before I moved to Hawaii. Now I never intend to live anywhere else. I might move to Maui or the Big Island, but I found my roots firmly planted in Hawaii. |
