Blair Wilde is a contestant from Survivor: Burkina Faso.

Profile
Hobbies: Playing with my adorable puppies, hanging out with friends, working out at the gym, playing darts at the local bar.

Pet Peeves: Hearing people chew gum, good darts players, the common cold.

Three Words To Describe You: Spontaneous, underestimated, risk-taker.

Personal Claims To Fame: Being one of the handful of female firefighters in Arizona.

Your Inspiration In Life: My father, who is also a firefighter, and my mother, who was a paramedic. I joined the Fire Department, and my brother is now a cop. I guess public service runs in the family blood. Contestant You Are Most Like: I think I share my toughness with somebody like Stephanie LaGrossa from Survivor: Palau. I’m also a little like Angela Perkins from Survivor: Ghost Island, since we both work in very physically demanding jobs that are dominated by men.

Reason For Being On Survivor: I’m a fan of the show, pretty much everyone at the station. We have a lot of down-time on our shift, so sometimes we’ll watch old episodes online. This is definitely a check off my bucket list.

Why You’ll Win: It seems to me that the women who do best at Survivor are either very under the radar floaters or extremely dominant and controlling players. Rarely do female winners win because of challenges. I know that I am pound for pound a lot stronger than most guys, so I will have to tone myself down physically or else I would probably put too large of a target on my back for my physical strength. The part that benefits me the most, however, is the social side. Not being noticed as a threat requires good relations with the other castaways and I have the advantage of both being a girl, and working entirely with guys. I find I am able to get along with almost anybody because of that and I expect Survivor to be no different than real life.
