Jay Kingston, ‘15

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Delaware chapter.

With a refined sense of style that’s ahead of his time and a lively personality that helps him smooth talk the ladies, Jay is on his way to snagging the title “big man on campus”. You can find him practicing guitar in the lounge or preparing to be on Jeopardy! College Edition. He’s dedicated to one day becoming a physician’s assistant and has a great relationship with his family. That’s right, girls, he’s the type of guy you can bring him home to meet your mom!

How Would You Describe Your Personality? I feel like I can relate to a lot of people which I’d say helps me to be a very outgoing, sociable person.

What do you look for in a girl? I like a girl with a killer personality, who’s very outgoing, intelligent, and has a good sense of style. 

Favorite TV Show: It’s a toss-up between How I Met Your Mother and Weeds.

If you could visit any place in the world, where would you go? I would have to say Australia. I’ve always found the people there very interesting, and I find the culture there pretty similar to American culture, which I like.

What Activities Are You Into? Playing guitar and piano, listening to music, going to concerts in the city, running, going to the gym, playing Frisbee, going to the beach in the summer, and driving around with no destination, going wherever life takes me. 

Celebrity Crush: Taylor Swift

Why? I like her music, and I think that a girl who can play guitar is one of the most awesome things. Judging by interviews I’ve seen of her, she seems like a really sweet, down-to-earth- girl.

Pet-Peeve: Being from New York, it really bothers me getting stuck behind people who are slow walkers!

Your Idea of a Perfect Date: I always found the cliché, going-out-to-dinner date to be the ideal date scenario. 

Sara studies at the University of Delaware (go blue hens!), and absolutely loves it. She is currently studying communications and english with a professional writing concentration. and is fostering a developing interest in public relations after having been introduced to the field through the Public Relations Student Society of America at UD. That has inspired her to concentrate in public relations in the future, though she is a firm believer in getting a well-rounded education and taking a bunch of classes in various subjects. Wherever her education takes her, Sara has always had a passion for writing and will continue her writing in any way possible throughout the remainder of her college years and beyond! Born in New York City, she appreciates and is preparing for the fast paced lifestyle of a city girl, but enjoys the more relaxed nature of her hometown on the Jersey Shore (though she is not affiliated in any way with the cast of MTV’s Jersey Shore). Only minutes from the beach, Sara tries not to take the beautiful atmosphere for granted. Similarly, she tries not to take anything else in her life for granted, and in this sense, prides herself on her strong work ethic. She believes that when life gets tough, it’s only because something great is on the horizon. She adores music, her family and friends, movies, writing, magazines, and travel. Sara cannot wait to see what else college has in store for her, and is ready to take more risks and live with no regrets. She is beyond thrilled to be part of the Her Campus team, and looks forward to writing and editing content that focuses on an audience of college women dedicated to achieving their aspirations.
