‘LIGHTNING FAST’ ROUND:

1. Last good movie I’ve seen. Matthew Frost’s short film titled Aspiration and Gone Girl. David Fincher is an amazing director and the actors were just honest, beautiful and amazing!

2. What do you consider beautiful and why? Natural, self-confidence is really nice and quite striking. You don’t see that a lot.

3. What haven’t you done yet that you wish you could? Travel overseas. I’ve only ever been in Australia and there is so much of the world I would love to see and learn from them.

4. Complete this sentence: “if I had no fear, I’d…”  Swim with orcas, hang out with some lions. Something ridiculously dangerous like those.

5. What is the one “flaw” you wouldn’t change about yourself? My red hair. When I was young, I would get teased a bit for it but now that I’m older, I really appreciate it because it sets me apart and helps me stand out.
