As the 29th state to join the United States of America, it is our turn to show the nation what represents Iowa. Our commitment to quality education, hard work, and small-town values are all represented in the Iowa quarter.
I’ve experienced all the food and restaurants in New Orleans. I’ve been doing a bit of touristing when I have the day off, just walking in the French Quarter. To me, it’s very, very surprising how people are so friendly. But no, it’s very different from Paris.
I’m a quarter of an inch taller than Jonathan at 6-foot-4 1/2.

I may not have played men’s football, but I’ve been at World Cups as a player. I know the emotions. I’ve been in quarter finals, a semi-final. I’d been substituted and sat on the bench watching us lose a penalty shoot-out. I know what happens, what you need when the pressure’s on.
