Sloane Prescott is definitely a diamond. The trauma, the pressures, they’ve created an amazingly determined woman. I caught up with her leaving an audition and she was as open as I’d expect with all she’s been through. She’s for sure the heroine of Ready. Set. Live.

The BasicsWhat is your full name? Do you have a nickname (if so, who calls you this)? Sloane Amelia Prescott. And as far as nicknames, as an adult I don’t really think I have one. My besties call me ’S.’ In grade school, the whole 6th grade used to call me Amelia Bedelia , after they found out my middle name was Amelia. Glad those days are over.Where and when were you born? April 21, 1997. Des Moines, Iowa. Boring, I know everybody thinks that, but really we have shit loads of fun there.Who are/were your parents? (Their names, birthplaces, occupations, personalities, etc.) Kintrell and Tracy Prescott. He's from Virginia, a big time civil engineer with a rich ass company. She's from Maryland. They met in Cancun during spring break of his senior and her junior year of undergrad. Been damn near inseparable ever since. Before my mom married my dad, she was a chemist, a pretty big deal in her industry. She has so many write ups about her advancements in lupus research. But she retired early after she got pregnant with me and was high risk. I literally became her whole life after that.Do you have any siblings? If you do, what are/were they like? Nope. It's just me. I got cousins though
