What would be the perfect weekend consist of: I would go somewhere with water. I’m really into water sports, so I’d probably go to Lake Tahoe or Lake Almanor.
If you could go to any country in the world where would you go?: I would go to Ireland because I’m Irish, and I’ve always wanted to visit.
Most people don’t know that: I have three older sisters. I think having older sisters is way worse than having older brothers because my sisters used to rough house with me and beat me up. But I can’t complain; it’s contributed to making me pretty tough.
What was life like before college?: Well, in high school I was the most injury prone human being. I had five surgeries within a year and a half, and all my injuries were football related. My sophomore year I cracked my patella, and my junior year I tore a deltoid ligament in my ankle. The worst injury was during my senior year when I broke my leg in four places and had to get a screw put in.
Hardest part about transitioning to college: Just meeting all the new people and being away from home for the first time. It was also hard with football because I had to go from playing with a team that I knew for four years to a team of 23 year olds that I didn’t really know. It was definitely intimidating because I had to prove myself to a new team.
Who are your role models?: My coaches throughout my career because they’ve impacted where I am today. Every time I got hurt they were the people I turned to.
Where do you see yourself in ten years?: I would want to live in a beach house and hopefully invent something. I would want to invent something like a post-it that nobody thinks of but everyone uses.
A QUICKIE (survey) with the CAMPUS CUTIE:
If I could have one super power it would be: To fly.

Describe your soul mate: “someone who is smart, funny, but doesn’t get too caught up in either. I want to be able to have a serious conversation, be able to speak honestly and listen, but I also want to be able to joke around too. I don’t put any stock in appearance, it never tells the whole story. My idea of my soul mate is a girl who wants to be with me as much as I want to be with her, and we can be just as happy staying up talking till three in the morning as we are just holding hands.”
One super Power: “Invisibility, then if a situation is really awkward I can just vanish”
Favorite Thing to do off campus: “Usually I’m pretty busy so I like to just take off for a walk in the woods to clear my head. If I have more time I like to go to the Texas Roadhouse which is quite possibly my favorite restaurant.”

Her Campus: Michigan girls are known for their beauty and brains. Is it intimidating to date a girl who is intelligent?
Tim Kellett: I like to think they’re more afraid of me than I am of them, but I’ve always been too intimidated to ask.
HC: Who’s your celebrity crush? Why?
TK: My celebrity crush is now and has always been the lady that plays the team’s teacher in The Mighty Ducks 2.
HC: Where do you see yourself in 10 years?:
TK: By the year 2023 I expect to have retired from the fast-paced world of federal law so that I may settle upon a spacious tract of land in western Ireland with my loving wife at the ripe, old age of 29.
HC: What are the most important qualities you look for in a potential girlfriend?:
TK: Personally I always look for a girl with a great sense of humor who also happens to be taller than 5’6”. If she’s also Irish and likes hockey we’d be talking marriage at that point.
HC: At what point in a relationship would you say it’s ok for your love interest to meet your family?:
TK: Having three older sisters, any girl who likes one of my photos on Facebook or texts me in front of them is immediately viewed as a significant love interest in their eyes. When I have a love interest, I’m glad to introduce her to my family when I feel like my sisters can handle meeting her.
