Tell me a bit about yourself outside of the game. What are your hobbies, interests, or passions?
I am a millennial nerd who has been playing ORGs for a little over ten years. I am a huge fun of reality competitions, with Big Brother, Traitors, and RuPaul’s Drag Race being among my all time faves. Apart from that, I am a huge gamer (video games, board games, role play games) and horror aficionado. Social deduction games are my favorite and you’ll often see me playing games like Salem, One Night Werewolf, and Clue with my friends. When opportunity arises, I am a world traveler and have been to South Asia twice to be with my wonderful fiancé, who is immigrating here any day now.
Explain to us what your general strategy is going into any ORG - unrelated to its format or twists. Then, could you point out any flaws in your gameplay?
My strategy is to form close personal bonds with the other players, connecting and relating to people on individual levels. I like to play my games as honestly as possible, regardless of my role, as trust is critical in these games. I try to play games being authentic and true to my values, never giving up the fight. Also, giving it all in challenges is important.
My biggest flaw is my paranoia. A lot of times, I overthink situations and it causes my mind to run wild with theories and mistrust. Sometimes it’s warranted, but often it’s not.
How will you adapt your personality and your strategy to better fit the role of being a Faithful or Traitor?
I’ve always been unique in social circles. I have had, and have, an interesting life with so many layers. I like to captivate people with my story and find ways to relate it to people such that they feel a connection and investment to me. Being an open book, people often times find my personality as one they don’t want to lose in the game.
As a host, confessionals are one of the most important things to me! How do you tackle your confessionals? Do you update them live with your thought process, or info dump at the end of an episode, or something else?
Often times, I’ll only update my confessional when asked or have important information. However, if there is a game with an active VL or a production team that heavily encourages confessionals, I’ll record video DR’s.
How do you handle conflict or disagreements with others?
I try not to be confrontational, but I’m also very direct. I don’t hide my feelings, even if I know they aren’t what the other person wants to hear. I have a degree in communications, so while I’m not perfect, I do try to articulate my thoughts tactfully and diffuse tense situations.But I will almost always say what’s on my mind, although the game comes first, so I will bite my tongue if needed to protect myself or my allies.
