What organizations are you a part of?

Delta Sigma Pi, The 1913 Society, Big Brothers, Big Sisters

 

How have you made an impact on GSU by being in the 1913 society?

“Man, the 1913 society is great. We have the opportunity to do some amazing things . . . I think we all take pride in being able to keep smiles on the faces of everyone we encounter through the organization, and show the world why GSU is an amazing University. It’s a little deeper than that, but honestly speaking, everything we do as ambassadors is impactful to the university.”

 

 

What is your favorite thing about GSU?

“Uh, the fact that you can literally grind how you want to grind, and be who you want to be, and still make a positive impact. Like literally, there is no box that you are put in, and told you can’t step out that box. You can be who you want to be and that makes GSU so lit.”

 

If I’m chilling on campus, you would find me…

“I’m rarely ever chilling on campus, but if I am, you could probably find me in the Delta Sigma Pi chapter room, or in the student center killing time.”

 

Do you have a goal you would like to reach before you graduate?

“If I told you, I would have . . . nah. Jk, but before I graduate, I just want to have a positive impact on the lives of as many people possible. I think everyone should strive to leave college with more than just a college degree and hopefully a job offer.”

 

 

Who is the person that influences you the most?

“Outside of my mom and family, I would have to say Prince Asumadu. He is someone I talk to basically every day, and always challenges me to live life according to my destiny, and not how the world wants me to live it,”

 

Fun Questions:

What’s your favorite place in Atlanta?

“Maybe Folli . . .nah, just kidding. It’s tough to say my favorite spot. Coming to Atlanta from such a small town was a crazy transition. I love all the major places in Atlanta like Atlantic Station, Buckhead, Centennial Park, Little 5, but I think my favorite place is my home. 1051 Moreland Dr. So many memories created there, and a place that I’ll truly never forget.”      

 

Favorite restaurant?

“That’s a tough one because I’m a very picky eater. Pizza is my favorite food, but I can’t be basic and say Pizza Hut. I’m going to go with Flying Biscuit; not too fancy, but really good food.

 

Favorite Color?

Green

 

Team you are currently supporting?

Carolina Panthers

 

If you could vacation anywhere in the world, where would you go?

“I would like to go to Barcelona”
