Q: What’s the most exciting thing you’ve done/hope to do with your major?

Q: Where is your favorite/dream vacation spot?

A: Somewhere warm with water. Last spring break I went to Pinehurst and it was a great time. I hate sharks so I am more of a lake guy than the beach.

A: I lost a bet freshman year and walked around in a ridiculous costume. My teachers loved that one.

Q: Who has the biggest inspiration in your life been?

A: My mom. She raised both my brother and I after my dad passed away on a teacher’s salary. If there is anyone that deserves to be taken care of in life, it’s my mom.

Q: What’s the number one thing you want to accomplish from your bucket list?

A: I really want to save up enough money to buy land on the beach and build my dream house.

Q: Do you have any advice to the freshmen?

A: Just to ask for help if they need it. There are so many people here in Boone that will go out of their way to help you if you ask for it.
