Profile
Name: Sawyer Mitchell (29) Tribe Designation: TBA Current Residence: San Jose, CA Occupation: Computer Programmer Personal Claim to Fame: Being employed in Silicon Valley, the tech capital of the United States. It's been a dream come true for me as I am obviously an extreme tech guru and being able to find my job in such an extensive and intriguing market. I took an extremely rough road to get to where I am today, but I wouldn't have it any other way. This computer geek is living life like never before! Inspiration in Life: Bill Gates is certainly the obvious answer, but you can't help but at least respect the guy for all the innovations he's made on the tech industry as a whole. I mean, computers wouldn't have been what they are today if it wasn't for him stepping in. Hobbies: Graphic Design, Playing Video Games, Hanging out with Friends, Playing Chess Pet Peeves: People who can't take a good joke every once and a while and people with absolutely no backbones or mind of their own. There's nothing I can't stand more than people who just follow and copy what others are doing instead of trying to explore their own interests. Be your own person! 3 Words to Describe You: Intelligent, Driven, Confident SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Zeke Smith for his enthusiasm and knowledge of the game coupled with the ability to play and strategize so well. I don't plan on revealing myself as that big of a player that early though so I feel as though I will be able to get further than he did. Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I just finished a lengthy battle with throat cancer.(Takes a deep breath) It was really hard for my family and me having to endure that for two years straight. However, I've overcome cancer and what's a better way to get back out there by coming out here and playing Survivor? I think this could be the perfect pick-me-up.(Smiling) Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I've made sure to study up on all the basic survival stuff that I'm gonna need out in the desert, and I've also been trying to eat less and less so that I can get my body prepared for the starvation and the sleep deprivation that's to come. Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I would definitely consider myself a student of this game. I'm a strategist through and through, and I want to be able to play the game and make a big splash by the end of all of this. I think what I need to put more focus on is my social game. I'm not exactly the most charismatic person on the planet, so going in and building those bonds and relationships is what is going to be crucial for my game.
