Most Improved 2011

Age: 26

Occupation: Food scientist

Interesting facts: Had the second-longest gap between completed MC Mini Masters (9 years). Enjoys various elements of geek culture, like many MCMM participants. Chooses cake over death.

Interesting lies: Unsuccessfully petitioned keyboard manufacturers to add a key that says "any." Rallied against Howie Mandel's prosecution in the Bobbygate scandal. Would have gone to Homecoming with you if you'd only noticed her in physics class-- why, Bronson Pinchot, WHY?
