HC: Funniest thing a guy has ever done to get your attention?
Ariel: A guy actually got his friend at a bar to come up to me and be a jerk and hit on me so that then he could come up and step in and look like the true gentlemen. I can say that they are now two of my best friends.??

HC: Any regrets?
Ariel: I can honestly say I have no regrets in my life, just life lessons. And I’m thankful for each one because I wouldn’t be who I am without them.??
HC: My best friend would describe me as…
Ariel: “One of a kind and very outgoing! If you want to meet a boy, don’t worry, Ariel has your back. She isn’t shy; we go to a party and this girl knows everyone at the party by the end of the night.  But what I love most about her is her dedication and drive to reach her dreams. She is the hardest working person I know.” – Her friend Alec
