Three Words to Describe You: Curious, calculating, zesty!

Why do you want to be part of Survivor? Survivor is like a four-course meal for the brain, body, and spirit! Where else can you untangle complex social webs, perform extreme physical feats, and learn your own limits (only to exceed them!)??

What's one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game? I worked at an intense, high-traffic nail salon for five years, where I had to balance the needs of customers with those of 20 Vietnamese women, many twice my age and with ranging language barriers. I had to navigate very different perspectives to keep everyone happy, sometimes with grown adults literally screaming in my face about their nails.

Which previous player do you identify with the most? Who do you think you will play most like? There are so many players I'd like to say here, but I identify most with Gabby and Aubry. I hope to play like those two strong women with that extra spunk that we saw from Maryanne.

What will you value in an alliance partner? Someone who is interested in talking through every possible outcome. I never want to move forward with a plan before considering alternatives.

Favorite Hobbies: Collecting leaves, game nights, collaging.

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? I (somehow) got a perfect score on the MCAT!

What is something we would never know from looking at you? I work at a center for mindfulness and compassion, and I have a daily practice in yoga and mindfulness meditation.

Who in your life is your biggest inspiration and why? I think Sophie Clarke is actually the coolest person ever. She was such a badass on the show and in her life, and I try to emulate that whenever I can. Runner-up is the Scarlet Witch.

Why will you be the Sole Survivor? I will be the Sole Survivor because I have two superpowers in this game: enthusiasm and adaptability. I am always learning and shifting based on my surroundings, and I'll weather any storm with a smile.

I browsed through some of Frannie's social media profiles and found that her real first name is actually Frances, which was found on her LinkedIn page.
