What’s the most exciting thing about you that most people don’t know? I am in 3 Martial Arts Hall of Fames and been published in multiple Martial Arts Books.

Who in the world – dead or alive – inspires you? And why? Mother Teresa has always been my hero. Since I was a little girl, I dreamed of going to India to work with orphans.

The life and humility of Mother Teresa inspired me to travel to 20 countries, in 5 continents, to work alongside widows, orphans, victims of human trafficking, and reconciliation projects.

What’s one professional achievement you’re most proud of? Achieving District of Distinction 2 years in a row.

Do you have any hidden talents or skills? What are they? I am pretty good with accents and can do a mean Donald Duck impression.
