Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:

1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";

2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and

3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Official CBS Survivor 47 bio excerpts, (September 4, 2024), as preserved by Mike Bloom at Parade.com:

"3 words to describe you: Down-to-earth, bubbly, determined

...

What’s one life experience you feel has prepared you for the game? I was born in Thailand and lived there until I was 7 but I never spoke Thai. Then I moved to the US and didn’t understand American culture. I was the youngest in my family by 9 years. I’ve always been forced to understand social dynamics to assimilate from a young age, and I think I’m pretty good at it as a result.

Which previous player do you identify with the most? Who do you think you will play most like? Kellyn Bechtold’s always resonated with me–her Midwest nice, her ability to trust her gut and her smarts and charm. I just adore her. I would love to play like Omar Zaheer. He played such an incredible social/strategic game where everyone believed he belonged with them and trusted him. I’ll strive to play such a cunning and masterful game.

What will you value in an alliance partner? Someone that will not be intimidated by my sort of rapid fire way of thinking. Ideally someone that takes my word vomit and parses it back and can balance out my overreactive brain.

Favorite Hobbies: Pottery, traveling, golf and yoga.

Pet Peeves: Hot oil splattering me while cooking, balloons popping (especially intentionally)

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of? I’m honestly just so proud of the life my husband Derek and I have built together. So many incredible friends and family loving and supporting us, good jobs, traveling adventures, a home with our dog Eva and cat Maeby. I just couldn’t ask for more and that makes me so damn proud.

What is something we would never know from looking at you? I can house the majority of a Costco watermelon in a single sitting.

...

Why will you be the Sole Survivor? I think I am good at reading people’s motivations and desires, which you need in order to pander to a jury. I make fast friends and tend to gain people's trust quickly, and I’m sort of a Goldilocks, not too weak but not too physical, smart but not the smartest in the room. I’m socially well off but never the leader or figurehead. I’ll ride the middle to victory!"
