5 Questions with Caroline

  1. Who inspires you?
    My dad. My dad is the most hardworking and smartest person I know. I'm inspired by his life every day.
  2. If you could be any animal, which would you be?
    An elephant. Elephants are so playful yet regal and intelligent at the same time.
  3. What's your favorite movie or TV show?
    Phantom of the Opera. Andrew Lloyd Webber is a musical genius.
  4. What's the best meal you've ever had?
    These Belgian waffles I ordered for room service last year. They were perfectly crunchy and fluffy at the same time. Those waffles were definitely the highlight of my trip.

    Superman. His disguise is too unconvincing—it's almost insulting.
