This is my annual UNC Halloween pumpkin.<\/p>\n
Profession: \u00a0I work on the Google for Education team. We try to get educators and school districts to use technology well to improve teaching & learning. I used to be a teacher and have had a lot of different roles in education, but this one has crazy scale, which I love.<\/p>\n
Favorite BTSH team other than the Riots: \u00a0The Dark Rainbows #Obvi.<\/p>\n
Favorite memory this year at Ocean City: \u00a0My favorite memory was watching Coach run into the ocean around 4am Saturday night. He tried to run in gracefully, as a sort of rallying point for all of us on the beach. The problem was he forgot about the 4 foot vertical drop. He fell, but bounced back up almost immediately- kind of like Chevy Chase in Vacation–still smiling. Amazing. He deserved the trophy he got.<\/p>\n Coach took home Michaliga’s inaugural OC Spirit Cup, named after WTP face, you know who, who will not be named<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n Favorite NHL team: \u00a0Flyers<\/p>\n Is that Josh Wilson?! No wonder why you like the Flyers so much you Rainbow loving fool!!!<\/p><\/div>\n What celebrity stole your identity:\u00a0<\/p>\n I have been told that Toni Collete is my celebrity doppelganger. And she did do a good Philadelphia accent in The Sixth Sense. So I\u2019d say her.<\/p>\n I believe your true doppelganger is BTSH fan favorite, Caroline Webster! For the longest time, I thought Caroline was just everywhere, until I learned of Webster doppelganger, Tia Lendo!<\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n Nobody likes this question, but it\u2019s the best one.\u00a0 If Sigmund Freud analyzed your game play, what would he conclude:\u00a0<\/p>\n I think he\u2019d say that I play best when I\u2019m a bit angry. He\u2019d probably say this means I have some deep-seated issues. But then I\u2019d take him to Ace Bar for a beer and he\u2019d realize I am a nice person and take it all back.<\/p>\n What makes the Rainbows so dark: \u00a0We wear pink, but we\u2019ll rip your face off if we have to.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/a>
Random BTSH Fun Fact: At\u00a0her very first BTSH game (2013 with Cobra Kai) her nose was broken by a ball someone shot. \u00a0She still doesn’t know who it was. Luckily, 6 days later, she went to DC and saw her friend who is an ear, nose and throat plastic surgeon. They had a few drinks, she asked him to look at her nose, and then suddenly, without warning, he popped it back into place. \u00a0Talk about dinner and drinks. \u00a0Later, she had an X-ray and the doctor told her her friend did a perfect job.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a>
