3 Words to Describe You: Observant, Compassionate, Tough

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Obviously Christy from The Amazon because we're both deaf, but I feel like I'm a combination of Tina Wesson, Holly Hoffman, Dawn Meehan, and Denise Stapley.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: To show this new generation of Survivors that disabilities don't place your limits, you do.

'''Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: Despite my age, I'd say that I'm quite the athletic person. It takes a lot for me to break down, so I believe I'll be able to tough out the weather, no matter how crazy it gets.'''

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: '''Although it may seem like I'm fighting an uphill battle due to me being an older deaf woman, I'm a lot more versatile than what I let on. I can be social, I can interact with others pretty well, and I'm actually very outgoing if you get to know me.'''

'''Profile Description (For Character Page) (50 Word Minimum): Charlotte has been deaf ever since he was a seven year old child. An infection in both ears caused her to completely lose her hearing, so she's had to struggle a lot through life, but she claims that that only made her stronger. She became a special education teacher so that she could help children who are facing the same problems she once had. Charlotte knows that her disability makes her an easy target, either as a weakness or a sympathy threat, but she won't let it get in the way of her winning the million dollars.'''
