On Tour Since: 2015

Hometown: Chicago, Illinois

Style: Right

I love to watch boxing on TV and as a young girl, I always dressed up as a pirate for Halloween. I am confused by fake wood paneling in cars and am uncomfortable when I don't know if someone will lean in for a hug or go for a handshake. I'm not a fan of sci-fi anything and I get excited to clean my hands with foam soap. I completely relish those moments when you laugh but no sound comes out. My favorite color is red and I love sushi. I'm a Silver Level Coach and own two companies with Jason Belmonte. The International Art of Bowling (www.iabowling.com) which focuses on coaching and Elite Youth Tour (www.eliteyouthtour.com) which is a youth bowling tour. I have been on Team USA from 199-2012 and have travelled to 36 countries
