Name: Nico Marquez
Year: Senior
Major: Organizational Communication
Hometown: Rogue River, Oregon
Activities: Well, I like to cook or bake, being in the kitchen is a pretty good way for me to get creative. Though I make a pretty good anything, my top two are crab cakes with wild rice and crimini mushrooms, and raspberry lava cakes.
Best UP Memories: That randomly sunny day towards the end of spring semester when everyone pulls out their blankets and lay out on the quad while other people throw a football or Frisbee. We all know that everybody’s pretending to study for finals, really, we’re out for the tan.
Commons or Cove: Hm, Commons, better chance to run into friends there.
One UP Bucket list item: Already accomplished. Stumped a Priest.
Most embarrassing moment at UP: Once, I was napping on the couch in my old dorm Kenna, and some friends actually drew things on my face. Sounds like the movies right? They even took a Snapchat of me snoring. Yikes!
Biggest Pet Peeve: When people smack their lips while eating.
Favorite TV Show: Grimm, Big Bang Theory, and GoT
Celeb Crush: Emma Stone
Single or taken: Single
Ideal girl: Independent, fun, and open to having fun. Nerdy is great too. Definitely creative or open to new ideas. I’m a fan of Harry Potter and Disney too, so no holds barred.
Ideal date: Playing tourist. Checking out Powell’s and sliding into a side cafe or deli.
Deal maker: Confidence and open mindedness
