Official CBS Survivor 49 bio excerpts, as preserved by Mike Bloom in Parade.com (August 20, 2025):

"3 Words to Describe You: Impulsive, loyal, sincere

Why do you want to be part of Survivor? Survivor is an adventure of a lifetime! I have visited 44 countries and seven continents. I love a thrill and pushing my limits. I have always marched to the beat of my own drum and succeeded. I have watched Survivor for 24 years and always told myself I’d be on that show. Here I am now! Manifestation is real!!

What’s one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game? After working in the fashion and beauty industry for 12 years, I wanted to make a career change and started working in the financial industry. I stepped outside of my comfort zone. It was uncomfortable, but I brought my true self to work and never questioned my abilities.

Which previous player do you identify with the most? Tai, both seasons. Tai was unique, brought his true, authentic self to the game, and he had morals.

Who do you think you will play most like? I think I’ll play most like Yam Yam – he brought laughter and positivity to the game.

What will you value in an alliance partner? Someone who can help me forget how dirty and hungry I am. I want to align myself with loyal and fun people, preferably a Gemini!

Favorite hobbies: Reading about astrology and getting my tarot cards read.

Pet Peeves: Half-glass empty mindset, negativity, people who can’t laugh at themselves, and people who only talk about themselves.

What is something we would never know from looking at you? That I’m always rooting for the underdog in everyday society.

Who is your biggest inspiration and why? Elle Woods from Legally Blonde. Yeah, I know she’s a fictional character, but she was underestimated because she loves pink and has blonde hair. No one ever took her seriously, but she was true to herself and accomplished her goals her own way. She taught me being underestimated is a powerful perception because no one will ever expect you to achieve anything.

Why will you be the Sole Survivor? Because I’m a Karate Kid and no one will ever see me coming. "
