Lara Brixton

 is a contestant from Survivor: Son Doong - Elements.

Profile

 * Name (Age): Lara (30)
 * Tribe Designation: Vayu (Earth)
 * Current Residence: Princeton, New Jersey
 * Personal Claim Of Fame: Using my experience as an architect to help in disaster relief, most recently helping a small town rebuild after they were hit by a huge fire. I designed everything free of charge and put in for building costs, and it just made me feel not only grateful for everything I have, but also thankful that I was able to lend a helping hand to those in need.
 * Hobbies: Going to the movies without actually deciding on what movie to watch yet, or doing the same thing but with restaurants and not knowing what food they even serve there are two of my favourite things to do, but an old favourite will always be going to watch a Phillies game whenever I get the chance.
 * Pet Peeves: My boyfriend telling me that I look like a librarian. I'm officially calling you out Dave! In all seriousness though, I don't have any super niche pet peeves, just the usual stuff like rude people, long queues, people that chew with their mouth open, etc.
 * 3 Words To Describe You: Vibrant, dedicated, compassionate
 * If you could have 3 things on an island what would they be and why?: I'd have three of the lovely guys that work for the construction company I hire out for my buildings. With my design knowledge and their hard work, we'd have a mansion of a shelter put up in no time! They're also not terrible to look at during the process either. 
 * Survivor Contestant you are Most Like: I think I see a lot of myself in someone like Tai. He's just a really wholesome guy that wants to do the best by everyone, but he's also got that sense of adventure and a wild spirit that I can relate to.
 * Reason for being on Survivor: I need this. I'm really a free-spirit type, but with my job, I get a bit locked down into formal proceedings sometimes. I want to have this adventure to break free from that and experience something that so few people ever get to experience, and I think it'll not only make me a better person for doing so, but it'll allow me one last time to capture that youthful innocence and need for adventure that I've slowly started to lose over the years. Thirty's a big number in life, and I'm not quite ready to settle down just yet.
 * Why do you think will be Sole Survivor: I think I'm probably someone that a lot of people can relate to. I'm not some over the top character that's going to be stirring up chaos and causing trouble, I'm just an everyday person. I'm the sort of person you'd come across a lot in your life, and that hopefully will make people feel comfortable around me. I'm also not a total bore without a personality, so I'll be someone that's always bright and cheery around camp and encourages people to get along with me. Either way, I think I'll integrate nicely into a group, and once I've got that in, I can make a deep run at things. Fingers crossed!
