What do you do with most of your time? I study at the library and watch movies, but I wish I could find time to swim more.
 

What is your favorite quote? “If there is anything in the world worth believing in, it is yourself.”

What is your favorite sport? Baseball.

What would be the ultimate first date? Skydiving, because skydiving will bring out the true
personality in someone.

What qualities do you look for in a girl? …smart, good sense of humor, sensible, kind, and of course being beautiful doesnt hurt.

What do you want to do after you graduate? Travel to Europe and Latin America
then come back to get my masters.
 
 
What is your worst fear? Being paralyzed. And I really dont like bugs that I can’t see or feel when they are on me, but I don’t mind the big ones.

 
What is your fondest memory so far at NCSU? The NCSU vs. FSU game this year. I Found out my brother’s wife was pregnant right before we won. Which is super awesome because it’s a boy, and I’m going to teach him the game of baseball. 

 
Are you single or taken? Single.

Would you change anything about yourself? Nope.

Do you have any talents? I  have a semi photographic memory if that counts as a talent… it helps me in a lot of situations so, it’s either a skill or a talent and I definitely didnt learn it. But I can make my stomach do the wave too!

What do you think about the girls at NCSU? Well what I like most about them is that they are gorgeous. What I don’t like is that they are overly self conscious.

 
Who is your hero? Why? Ghandi or Jimmy Valvano. Ghandi, because he accomplished everything he sought to accomplish without any disrespect, harm, or sacrifice on the part of others. Which is a quality almost everyone today lacks. People are too greedy or self absorbed, they don’t care if they are hurting someone else somewhere that they cant see, as long as they have something to gain. Jimmy Valvano because he stared down his own death by cancer and still managed to inspire confidence in others, he was a selfless leader that everyone had something to learn from. and still inspires many people today, over fifteen years after his death.

 
If you had a Bucket List what would be your top three things on it
: 1) See Machu Picchu 2) Skydive in Switzerland. 3) Walk on the moon or Mars. 

 
Descrive yourself: I’m easy to get along with, aware, smart, random, and kind.
