'Personal Claim of Fame: Out of all the cases I've 'had in my career as a prosecutor, only one of them did not end up in a conviction. I'm that good.''



Inspiration In Life: ''Don't know if fictional people count, but Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird. He was the exact reason I wanted to become a lawyer in high school and his viewpoint on the world is one that I now have and wish everyone else did.''

Hobbies: ''I play a mean game of Risk. Other than that, I enjoy jogging and occasionally go cycling. I am a Washingtonian after all!''

Pet Peeves: ''People who start speaking in the middle of someone else's sentence. Hello, someone else was talking!''

3 Words To Describe You: Ruthless, manipulative, intelligent.

If you could have 3 things on an island what would they be and why?: 1. ''To Kill a Mockingbird, which is my favorite book. 2. Risk, to pass the time. 3. A huge bag of York Peppermint Patties, because they're the best candies ever.''

Survivor Contestant you are Most Like: ''Mindset wise, definitely Russell. We're both cunning and don't care if people's feelings get hurt in the process. ''

Reason for being on Survivor: ''My mother is the biggest fan of this show and she called me up one day and said 'You'd be so good at it, Marya'. I started watching it and fell in love with the strategy aspect of it. Since then, I've always wanted to test my wit with it.''

'Why do you think will be Sole Survivor: As a prosecutor, I excel in extracting information from people, whether through tricking them into revealing their secrets or through straight persu'asion. Hopefully I can use some of my skills as a prosecutor in the game and use the information I get to maneuver myself through to the end.''
