• Comment: subject was the winner of the 2005 U.S. National Geography Bee and received a $25,000 scholarship. Please be descriptive in your summaries on vfd pages; this description makes it sound like this might be a random vanity page. Meelar (talk) 19:07, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)

• Thanks for the suggestion, I will try to write more info. Sarg 19:11, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
