What’s your best physical trait? 
This makes me sound like a meathead, but I’m pretty proud of my arms
What are you involved with on campus?
 I’m a proud member of the Varsity Football team. I’m also involved with Harvard’s Office of Sexual Assault Prevention and Response.
What’s your favorite Harvard memory?
In the most recent Harvard-Yale game, the rest of the offensive line and I opened a hole for a long run by my good friend Treavor Scales. The run put him over 1,000 yards on the season and provided the dagger that ensured our victory. It was just a great moment that reflected the hard anonymous work that we’ve put in over the years and I couldn’t have imagined a better way to end my collegiate career.  
What do you look for in a significant other?
  I look for all of the classic things like humor, confidence, and intelligence. But I also just want a girl with whom I can have either a stimulating/ serious conversation or a stupid/meaningless conversation that are both equally satisfying.
If you could be a superhero which one would you be and why?
Let’s be serious, if you don’t pick Superman you’re fooling yourself. He literally has all of the best superpowers. It’s not even fair. The Hulk would be a close second for me though because it’d be sweet to be that strong. 
Describe your ideal date:
  We’d spend the day at the beach (and we’d go in the water and play silly games, not just walk or lie on it) then grab dinner (where we’d sit at the bar) and finally, we’d go back to my place and snuggle up on the couch with a good movie (any genre).

 Michelle is a senior at Harvard College hailing from Long Island, New York. She is pursuing a degree in Comparative Literature with a minor in English and special focus fields in sleep deprivation and procrastination. At any given moment, you are most likely to find her racking up points on her Starbucks Gold Card, writing by the Charles River, or stalking Boo's latest photo shoot. Michelle couldn't be more excited to be part of the Her Campus team and bring HC to life on Harvard's campus, and she would love to hear from you with any feedback!
