SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Parvati, because she's great at concealing her intelligence behind her flirty charming side.
Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I love playing strategic games that I have a decent chance of winning. Wilderness survival and challenges will be really fun. I'm far more excited for the game than the possibility of prizes at the end.
Why You Think You'll "Survive" SURVIVOR: My brain will be an asset to my alliance for strategy and my team for challenges. I'm good at fitting in with different types of people. I have pretty good outdoors skills too.
Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I am going to be an unusually strategic and clever player. I am also likable. I'm fit so I'll be good at challenges but not so much I'll be perceived as threatening.
Survivor: Kaôh Rōng
Liz started the game on the Chanloh, or "Brains" tribe. During the early days of the game she got along well with her tribemates and helped Aubry Bracco deal with the stress of the game. After winning a fire making kit in the first challenge, Liz and Joe del Campo clashed after Joe accidentally wasted most of the tribes kerosene. This caused a rift between the two, with Joe viewing Liz as rude and Liz becoming annoyed that they could not make fire to boil water. Despite their fighting, Chanloh was able to win the next challenge. During this time Liz began to bond with Peter Baggenstos
Liz and Peter noticed that the tribe had begun to split up into three groups of two: Liz & Peter, Aubry & Neal Gottlieb and Joe & ebbie Wanner. Liz was confident that her group had control over the tribe, viewing Joe and Debbie as goats they could drag to the end of the game. Because of this they decided to target Neal should they lose the next challenge. When they finally did lose an Immunity Challenge Liz was not worried as she felt Tribal Council would go her way. Liz told Aubry and Neal to target Joe, and Debbie and Joe to target Neal. However Liz and Peter's cockiness and grating attitude caused the rest of the tribe to conspire against them. At Tribal Council Peter expressed his confidence to everyone, which was the final straw, and caused the other tribe members to split the vote between Liz and Peter. In the revote Liz was voted out 3-0-0, as the tribe felt Peter's strength outweighed his attitude. Liz became the third person voted out and finished in 16th place.
