Emily FlippenAge: 28 Hometown: McKinney, TX Current Residence: Laurel, MD Occupation: Investment Analyst 3 Words to Describe You: Direct, genuine, aggressive. Why do you want to be part of Survivor? Some of the best advice I've received is to "live a more interesting life." What's more interesting than Survivor? What's one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game? When I was 18, I moved to Shanghai to be part of the inaugural class of the first joint Sino-American University in China. I'm accustomed to working with (and competing against) people with many different backgrounds and life experiences. Which previous player do you identify with the most? Who do you think you will play most like? I've been told my personality is extremely similar to Kass. I take that as the complement that it is. However, I plan on playing my own game and making an entirely unique set of mistakes. What will you value in an alliance partner? Openness. I want to work with someone who wears their heart on their sleeve. Who won't leave you guessing as to their emotions or intentions. Favorite Hobbies: Doting over my cat, playing video games, meal-prepping Pet Peeves: Nearly everything. Chewing, snoring, arrogance, being overly serious, being overly jokey. You name it and it probably irritates me. What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? Passing all three levels of my CFA exams on my first attempt. (Trust me, it's a solid humblebrag in the world of finance!) What is something we would never know from looking at you? I'm not religious, but I am guided by my own very strict sense of right and wrong. Who in your life is your biggest inspiration and why? My dad. I take after him in a lot of ways. He has shown me the importance of accepting yourself for who you are while also pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Why will you be the Sole Survivor? I lack a lot of the traditional qualities that make a good Survivor player: I'm out of shape, don't really like the outdoors, and people can find me off-putting. Which is exactly why they'll never see me coming!

Oh boy, she's going to be a blast Not feeling the love for this one, especially because I didn't like Kass at all & if she's anything like her as she claims she is, & she says people find her off-putting (yeah, I sure feel that way about her), I'll be hoping she's an early boot.

I knew I wasn't going to like her when I did her bio...but dang ...she's just awful! And stupid! She was lucky Hannah wanted to go home because she was literally calling people out at the first tribal council. Not smart.

Just started watching and my first reaction what a hateful brat. Bet is is the ultimate difficult co-worker. Makes you want to spit in her food before you serve it to her.

I also posted this in the 9/27 show thread, but I'm posting it here as well:
Emily is awful. In her bio she compares herself to Kass, but I get more of a Corinne vibe off of her! That woman was just plain mean & hateful just for the sake of being mean & hateful.

She lost me when she came at Bruce the way she did. Sorry, but you have made it farther than he did last season, he has no experience. Get the heck over yourself.
Corinne vibes for sure. Good catch, Holly.

The producers chose Bruce to comeback, they didn't have to but they did, suck it up.
