Too Many Words

Why do you do what you do for Sick Puppies/Sick Puppies World Crew?
Sick Puppies are some of the most real people I’ve ever met in the industry. They really care about their fans and the music that brings all of us together. That’s why I started doing it, and while that still remains true, this is now my extended family.

What is your favorite band/s other then Sick Puppies?
Evanescence, Breaking Benjamin (Phobia era) and either Shinedown or Flyleaf depending on the day/mood.

Chocolate of vanilla?
Chocolate

What is your favorite color?
Blue

What are some of your hobbies?
Writing is my passion and I’ve done both interviews/journalism features and fictional stories. I really love movies and am passionate about TWLOHA.

What is your favorite song of all time?
Missing by Evanescence

Do you play an instrument?
Define “play.” I attempt to make noise on the guitar, piano and kazoo.

What is your favorite TV show/movie/book?
24 was my favorite tv show, but now it’s gone. Looking to fill the Jack Bauer holes…sob! I couldn’t pick one movie, that’d be impossible. I really loved Shutter Island so far this year, though. Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold or anything by Wally Lamb (She’s Come Undone, This Much I Know Is True, The Hour I First Believed, etc.)

What is your favorite food?
Mandi’s Snickerdoodle cookies.

Do you have REAL puppies (or any other pet)?
One dog, Bitsy. One cat, Loki. One guinea pig, Snickers. (The guinea pig is Kaiden’s, but our dog is pretty convinced it’s her baby)


My theory is as such....70 year-olds of today swing dance at weddings, so at 70 we'll be moshing and head banging in walkers to Rage.
