What’s your most memorable Halloween experience?
Most memorable Halloween: My cousin, a friend and I dragged our terrified buddy into a midnight horror screening. He bolted out whining; we chased him, screaming and laughing, pretending to be the scared ones. We left breathless and laughing.
Tell us why you would make it to the end of a horror movie.
I'm built for the final reel. Being "scary" means I don't cower—fear sharpens me. I spot tropes, secure exits, steady my friends, and improvise. I move quiet and deliberate, bait the obvious, and outthink the monster. When the credits roll, I'm still standing.
What would you do with the unlucky $13,000?
If I win the $13,000, I will invest it directly into scaling my business that helps seniors manage automatic online payments and billing. The funds will be used for targeted advertising and outreach to senior living communities, assisted-living facilities, community centers, churches, and healthcare partners to drum up business and build trusted referrals.
Who is your real-life hero who you would want to survive a horror movie with?
If I had to pick one real-life hero to survive a horror movie with, it would be Jamie Lee Curtis. She’s the original scream queen, yes—but she’s so much more than a scream. On screen she’s Laurie Strode: resilient, resourceful, and battle-tested. Off screen she’s a candid, compassionate advocate and mother who turns hard-earned wisdom into strength. That combination—experience, practicality, and heart—is exactly what you want when the lights go out.
