What is Your Go-To Starbucks Order? Shaken Iced Green Tea
What Do You Like to Do In Your Free Time?
I’m really into nature photography. I’m content reading a book, watching TV, listening to music, or playing Xbox, but I also love going on spontaneous adventures with my friends.
What is Your Favorite Movie?
I can never decide on one favorite movie, but I’ll say Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2.
What is Your Favorite Book?
My book trinity is the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling, the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan, and The Shadowhunter Chronicles by Cassandra Clare.
What Is One Thing On Your Bucket List?
I really want to visit Liechtenstein one day.
What is Something Someone Would Be Surprised to Learn About You?
I have a thing called snatiation, which means I sneeze uncontrollably if I eat too much.
What’s Your Favorite Part of William and Mary?
I’m a history nerd, so I love how our campus is steeped in history. After being here for almost four years, I still learn new things about the College and its history all the time.
What is One Piece of Advice You Have For Freshmen (or anyone)?
Take a class in the Wren Building if you have the opportunity to do so. It’s surreal taking a class in a building that has been around for over 300 years.
If You Were President of the College for a Day, What Would You Do?
I would rename one of the buildings after myself so that my short-term presidency would be remembered forever.
