If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why? 1) A great book – I love to lose myself in a fictional world. 2) My ipod – music is one of God’s greatest gifts. 3) Banana Grams – a nerdy game that’s a combination of scrabble and a crossword. It’s so much fun, competitive, creative and a great bonding game!

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Kim Spradlin, because she was very strategic, had few enemies and was a physical threat, all while maintaining her composure.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I’m a competitive person and Survivor is the epic challenge that will require me to incorporate all my strengths, minimize all my weaknesses and test myself and hopefully rise above the rest.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: As a racecar driver I’m the center of my team, so it’s my job to lead and motivate everyone to be their best. I am smart, analytical and strategic. I focus on the big picture but also take note of the small details.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I’m competitive, strategic, amicable, physically fit and do what I have to in order to get ahead. I’m extremely focused and have an amazing ability to concentrate. I’ve been through the highest highs and the lowest lows with racing. I’m quick, a great team player and street smart.

Survivor: Caramoan
Julia began the game on the Gota tribe, which was comprised of fans. Although Julia's role in the tribe was rather small, she joined the Gota Alliance and aided in the eliminations of Allie Pohevitz, Hope Driskill, and fellow alliance member Laura Alexander.

At the Tribe Switch, Julia was switched to Bikal along with fellow alliance members Michael Snow and Matt Bischoff. Julia did not forge any strong relationships with her new tribe and was quickly targeted by Stealth R Us 2.0 for elimination. Luckily for Julia, she was spared when John Cochran persuaded the tribe to vote out Matt instead.

The following day, Julia was approached by Phillip Sheppard, who was interested in working with her long-term. However, Julia was intimidated by Phillip's demeanor and told Dawn Meehan of the entire conversation. Dawn relayed this information back to the other members of Stealth R Us, and they decided to split their votes between Julia and Michael in case either had the Hidden Immunity Idol. This would cause a tie, and then they would vote Julia out in the revote. At Tribal Council, this plan would come to fruition and Julia was voted out 4-0 in the revote.

Voting History
In There's Gonna Be Hell to Pay, the vote ended with a 3-3-3 tie between Hope, Eddie, and Shamar, forcing a revote. Julia did not change her vote at the revote. In Tubby Lunchbox, the vote ended with a 3-3 tie between Julia, and Michael, forcing a revote. Cochran and Phllip changed their votes to Julia at the revote, eliminating Julia from the game.
