CM: Squash, I play number one. I’m also going to be a POAP leader this year.

HC: What has your experience on the Squash team been like?

CM: It’s a nice bonding experience with older people, and people who aren’t necessarily in your friend group. I get to hang out with a broad spectrum of people.

HC: What is something that is on your Bucket List? 

CM: To climb Mount Kilimanjaro.

CM: Maybe getting my PhD in psychology. If that doesn’t work out too well, I could see myself working outdoors. Or starting my own ice cream shop and tea store.

HC: Has starting an ice cream and tea shop been a dream of yours?

CM: Yes, it’s always been a distant dream to open one, I think it would be really fun and cute. Hand made ice cream of course.

HC: Do you have plans to go abroad? If yes, what are you most excited to do while you are away from campus?

HC: What do you hope to accomplish before you graduate?

CM: Doing well in school and making good friends. Having a memorable and positive experience overall!
