If you could go to any concert right now, which one would you go to?
I will literally go see any concert … Except for country, none of that stuff.
 
Do you play any instruments?
I play guitar. I’ve been playing for about 6 years. I taught myself and got really into it!
 
What type of music do you usually listen to?
My mom raised me on Rock and Roll, so I listen to anything in the genre. I enjoy metal and the heavy stuff, but I’m kind of a sap for blues and jazz and softer stuff like acoustic. I listen to Stevie Ray Vaughan, BB King, Metallica, A Day to Remember and Opeth. I like John Mayer too.
 
What’s something most of your friends don’t know about you?
That I’m an art geek!
 
What kind of art do you do?
I used to do fine arts—mostly pencil drawing, like graphite, and I also did airbrush, but now I do graphic design.
 
Have you designed any thing?
I work for the ARC in the Marketing department, and I do shirts and advertising material for many organizations on campus. Check out my stuff at Nolawdesign.com!   
 
What’s your favorite characteristic in a girl?
I definitely want someone who has a good sense of humor, someone who’s able to laugh and make the best out of a bad situation, who is not too serious all the time and is comfortable in their own skin.
 
What is the first thing you notice about a girl?
Eyes, for sure. I’m really into eyes. First thing I notice is color of the eyes. Blue ones in particular.
 
What’s your hidden talent?
I am the winner of the Blazing Buffalo Wild Wings Challenge, which requires you to eat 12 atomic buffalo wings in under 6 minutes. I did it in 3min and 28 secs. Talented, I know.
