Interview with Olivia Schireson
What is your best bridge memory?
My favorite bridge memory is playing with Michael Rosenberg.
What do you do when you are not playing bridge?
When I am not playing bridge, I enjoy spending time with friends, listening to music, and reading.
What would you say to encourage someone to take up bridge?
To encourage someone to take up bridge, I would say you can get exactly what you want from playing bridge. Whether it’s an intellectual challenge, a good time, lifelong friends, or the chance to travel the world, bridge can give you what you are looking for.
Why have you decided to join Team Funbridge?
I have decided to join Team Funbridge because it’s an amazing group of people. I’m excited to be around many talented players, and great company on the team.
