What instruments do you play? Piano, violin, little bit of guitar, but my favorite is my voice. Singing is such a huge part of my life and upbringing.

Spirit animal and why? A liger, cause I love Napoleon Dynamite.
Favorite fall clothing item? Jackets. I love my peacoat and dress shoes.

What has been your most embarrassing moment? Probably the time I got locked out of my room. I was coming back from band practice, so I was hot and sweaty and ready for a shower. So I set my keys, phone and wallet on my desk in front of my roommate who was just chilling on his computer, and I get my stuff for the showers to leave. Well, when I come back the door is locked and all I’m wearing are boxers, a grey wife beater and red flip flops. So, I have to go down to the front desk to get a key and all of my band friends are having lunch and give me funny looks. It was so embarrassing!
Favorite body part on a girl? Eyes for sure.
Favorite feature about yourself? Speaking voice.
Ten years from now, where do you see yourself? Either teaching at a university. To be specific, in the New York or Chicago area.
