Tell us about your favorite appearance as an Eagles Cheerleader: In June of 2012, I was able to participate in a performance in NYC at the amfAR Inspiration Gala. Along with 22 of my teammates, I performed a 3 minute crowd pleasing dance routine on a 100 yard runway to kickoff the event's fashion show. Not only was it a once in a lifetime experience, but the event raised money for AIDS awareness. I was honored to be part of something that supported such a great cause.

What makes Eagles fans the greatest in the NFL: Eagles fans are so passionate and are largely responsible for creating the exciting game day atmosphere I love so much.

Secret to staying in shape: I like to do a multitude of outdoor activities to stay in shape so I don't get bored. I run, swim, hike, kayak, ski, golf...you name it, I've probably tried it! Eating healthy is also something that is really important. I love to eat fruits and vegetables!

What is sexy to you: I like a guy who has a great sense of humor. If he can make me laugh, he gets a gold star. A great smile and twinkling eyes wouldn't hurt. He has to look good while he's making me laugh!

Most outrageous thing you ever did or craziest experience in your life thus far: My dad and I have gone skydiving together. If jumping out of an airplane without knowing if your parachute is going to open or not isn't outrageous, I don't know what is!

Name three celebrities that you would follow on Twitter: Betty White, Adam Levine and Katy Perry

Favorite place to go on a date: Balzano's - Fill me up with spaghetti with Mr. B's red sauce and some ricotta cookies, and I'm a happy girl!

Most embarrassing moment: When I was a lifeguard, I was working on a rainy day. There weren’t many people swimming, so I didn't bother changing into my swimsuit. I slipped on the edge of the pool and fell into the water completely clothed. Luckily, only a few people witnessed this, but when I came out of the water my cheeks were definitely rosy. I was so embarrassed!

Biggest pet peeve: Squeaky sounds go through me. If your shoes squeak, please don't wear them!

Worst pickup line you have ever heard: A man once approached me and said "Did you eat Campbell's soup for breakfast? You look mmm mmm good!" I was speechless.

What TV show are you embarrassed to admit watching: I have a 6 year old niece and I end up watching her favorite shows when we are together...but you'll catch me watching iCarly and Good Luck Charlie, even when she isn't in the room.

What song do you love to dance to: There are so many! If I had to choose it would be "Club Can't Handle Me" by Flo Rida.

What was your first job: I made cotton candy at an amusement park! I used to go home with sugar everywhere...on my clothes, in my hair, and even up my nose! It definitely wasn’t a glamorous job, but it was a lot of fun!

What do you know how to say in a foreign language: Sometimes I find myself using random Spanish phrases. Usually it's just saying "gracias" instead of "thank you".

Special talent that very few people know about: I make a mean pumpkin pie!
