Name (Age): Catherine Lynyshyn (50)

Tribe Designation: TBD

Current Residence: Minot, ND

Occupation: Family Lawyer

Personal Claim to Fame: Having represented well over five hundred clients throughout the 20 plus years that I have been an attorney.

Inspiration in Life: Sweetie, I am my own inspiration! I grew up in an old-school farm family where I was merely expected to grow up, find a husband, have some babies, and work in the kitchen my whole life. By the time I got to high school though, I was like “Screw that! I’m going to make something of myself!” So, I worked my ass off, paid my own way through law school, and now look at me! I’m now a successful Family Lawyer who has been practicing for over 20 years!

Hobbies: Playing piano, spending time with my family, seeing horror movies with the girls, reading

Pet Peeves: Misogynists are most certainly at the top of that list! Just because I have a pair of boobs and a vagina doesn’t mean that I am any less of a person, or that I’m only good as a mother, or for sex, or whatever. On the flip side though, I also can’t stand people, usually women, that use their gender as leverage to get what they want or to guilt trip people.

Three Words to Describe You: Passionate, Competitive, Sassy

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: I guess the best match for me would be Destiny Holloway of Seychelles. We’re both successful lawyers, and I admit that I can be a bit of a bitch like she is at times.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: Being a successful and respected family lawyer, I’m pretty well off in life. So, I’m mostly out here because I’m a fan of the game and I want to see how far I can get.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I’m going to survive because I am a very determined and competitive person, and I’m just not going to let myself settle for anything less than getting to the end.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: Darling, having been a lawyer for over 20 years, I know how to read people very well, and you can bet that I’m going to use that to my advantage out here. I also pride myself with having the ability to persuade people into doing what I want them to do. Make no mistake about it, I’m here to win and I’m going to do whatever it takes to get to the end and claim the title of Sole Survivor!
