Current occupation: Owner of a snowplow company
Describe what you do: As President of Case Snow Management, Inc., my responsibility is to develop our company's growth in the snow and ice industry to service the Northeast Region. My job is to lead a team of professionals, establish our mission and execute our goals.

What excites you most about traveling? Exploring new parts of the world and living in different cultures. Life can be very rewarding after seeing new things.
Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on The Race together: Amy and I have strong personalities. Our biggest challenge will be communicating without bickering. Sometimes Amy can be harsh and have a little attitude. This race will test our ability to work together as a team. It will either be successful or tragic.
Pet peeve about your teammate: She is on her cell phone 24/7. I like technology but Amy allows social media to run her life.
What country and place would you most like to visit and why? That’s a tough question. I find European history fascinating, but I also like to relax on a tropical beach. I’m not sure.
What do you hope to accomplish by running The Race (other than winning one million bucks)? This race will challenge our relationship. I’m ready to be married but need to know we can endure anything together. I feel this race will make or break our relationship.

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Completing two Master degrees by the time I was 22 years old. I am also incredibly proud of my involvement with non-profit organizations and causes. Most recently, I was a nominee for the Man & Woman of the Year Award of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
What famous person reminds you of yourself? Eva Longoria – I hear it all the time.
What famous person reminds you of your teammate? A young Republican! A.k.a. future Senator or Governor of Massachusetts.
What scares you most about traveling? Getting kidnapped. I don’t want to be taken.
What excites you most about traveling? Trying new foods and meeting locals.
Biggest challenge you and your teammate will face on The Race together: I have a habit of suppressing my feelings, and that coupled with my short fuse, BEWARE! This race is all about communicating effectively (and quickly!) which could become an issue when Jay and I are faced with challenging situations.
Pet peeve about your teammate: I really dislike that he has a tendency to think I am being negative when I am NOT... EVER! I am a "cup half full" type of gal!
What country and place would you most like to visit and why? I would love to go to Egypt. Since I was a little girl I’ve been fascinated by the culture and its history. It’s also my Father’s favorite place in the world!
What do you hope to accomplish by running The Race (other than winning one million bucks)? I love Jay and I believe he’s the one I am meant to spend the rest of my life with. Unfortunately, it seems like our “great times” mostly occur when we are on vacation and away from our everyday lives. I hope TAR will open his eyes and he will realize that we, as a couple, can endure and make it through anything

kj:
They have a sense of entitlement and demonstrate grandiosity in their beliefs and behavior. They have a strong need for admiration, but lack feelings of empathy.   Hope they loose.

Hooky:
To me they definitely do seem to have a tight bond between them. I think they will get along most of the time, and I don't see them losing their relationship when the Race is over. They look like they were meant for each other. This should serve them well in challenges and settings when teams with weaker relationships might crumble.

We will have to watch and see just how much they are "Jacks of all Trades," as they claim to be.

I don't really get that impression from them at all.
