GET TO KNOW DARIAN:

QUESTION: If you could jump on a plane right now and go anywhere in the world, where would you go?

ANSWER: Anywhere with a beach and hot weather. If I had to be specific probably Hawaii or Jamaica.

 

QUESTION:Who is your biggest role model? Why?

ANSWER: Of course my mom is my one of the biggest role models in my life. But I definitely look up to Abby Wambach. I’ve always watched her soccer games, followed her on social media, and just been a big fan. She stands up for things she believes in and isn’t afraid to be herself in a place where people are quick to judge.  

 

QUESTION: Let's say you have just won 200 million dollars in the lottery.  What would you do with all that money?

ANSWER: I would definitely continue my education and put aside what I need for college, then I would donate to certain cancer research centers. The rest I would put in a bank and use to help support my family.
