Please answer these question only using the information below to describe this character. Attached is your character's resume.

An English major with a slight obsession with American football. She loves all styles of books but is particularly fascinated by romance and mysteries. She enjoys singing songs ranging from pop, rock and country. When she is not studying, she works as a babysitter (8 years experience) and a substitute teacher (2 years experience). Last summer, she went overseas to Thailand to help teach English as a foreign language (TEFL) for a month.

She enjoys sports, mostly watching but would participate in volleyball and softball.

She is not very crafty/artistic but is more than willing to try.

When working with others, she is more than willing to work in a group to get different ideas from her peers.

However, she is quite shy and reserved at first and takes time to warm up to others. She is nice and can get along with almost anyone so working together will never cause problems.
