SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: There hasn’t been any one like me. I’m going to pave my own way.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: After each episode I watch from home I say “I want to do that!” The challenges, the mind games, the pushing your body to its limits, it all get me so excited!

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I can make fire, I’m very organized and detail focused which would help in numerous challenges. I’m also strong and have a lot of endurance.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I have the stamina to make it through the challenges, I have the mental grit to get past the mind games and the gutsiness to make the big moves when they need to be made. I am Survivor.

What Does It Mean to You to Play Survivor with Your Loved One? I'm so excited that I get to play with Reed! This will be a memory that we will share for life. Having someone to go through this with who can help you find strength when you really need it will be invaluable in this game. I'll be stronger having Reed by my side...it also helps that he's great to look at as well.
