Kate Moore,16, is a high school sophomore from Des Moines, Iowa and she just won $60,000 for her texting abilities. She started texting when she got her first phone a year and a half ago and then entered the LG U.S. National Texting Championship in New York and won, winning herself $50,000.
Moore went on to the worldwide texting championship, held in January. Together with teammate Morgan Dynda, Moore went on to place second, behind a team from Korea and they shared a $20,000 payout.
That brought Kate Moore up to a total of $60,000 in prize winnings for her super fast texting abilities.
