Dymond Hayes

People's Choice Award

1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
Giving is my favorite word because it has a profound reciprocal effect. When you open your heart and give to others you receive as much or more as you have given! It is through giving that we learn about ourselves, help others, and leave our footprints on the world.

2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
Confidence is the best beauty secret! When you can easily and genuinely interact with people from different walks of life your true inner beauty will show. People may look pretty on the outside but it’s the ability to be confident with others that creates true beauty.

3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
I am most proud of the hours I have dedicated in the fight against breast cancer. The money I raise strengthens cancer research, develops early detection tools and treatments, and improves cancer care. The time I donate erases the pain on a patient’s face and replaces it with a smile.

4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
Wednesday, because it’s the middle of the week. I celebrate the accomplishments of the first half and look forward to the challenges/rewards upcoming. When you’re in the middle you have the ability to analyze where you are and course correct if necessary, making the day extremely exciting.

5. How would your parents describe your personality?
I believe hard work, determination, and faith in God allows you to accomplish your dreams therefore, I don’t have a good luck charm. I dream big, work hard, and put the rest in God’s hands. Whatever happens after that I’m okay with because it’s part of the master’s plan!
