If you could travel any where in the world, where would it be and why? That’s really difficult to say. I’d go anywhere with a lot of rich history — Russia, Japan, the U.K., places in Europe. Why? Because it’s be awesome!

HC: This week, we have a campus cutie who’s 5’6 and you, who is 6’5…is bigger always better?

What food could you eat for the rest of your life? Hands down, it’s skyline chili. It’s what I miss most about not living in Ohio anymore.
What’s the first thing you notice about a girl? It differs each time. It just depends on the girl, obviously.
What’s one date idea for college students in Williamsburg? College Creek, or more commonly known as Jamestown Beach, is a hot spot for couples. If you’re of appropriate age, your beverage of choice can set the mood of the date along the coast of the James River.
One piece of advice for girls at W&M? A wise man once told me: “Don’t cut your hair short, don’t wear capris.” I stand by his statement.

Name one thing that most people don’t expect from you when they see you: That I have four tattoos. People always say “I didn’t expect you to be the kind of person to have tattoos,” and I always say ‘I’m not sure if that’s meant to be a compliment or an insult.’
What are your tattoos of? Lightning bolt on my upper inner right arm, goalie hockey stick on the left in the same place, outline of the world map on my left front facing hip, and a shark jaw on my right elbow.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years? Hopefully working for a professional hockey team, but other than that I don’t really have any plans for my future.

Team Gale or Team Peeta: Team Peeta.
Harry Potter or the Hunger Games: Both, but I’m still on the high of The Hunger Games so that’s still clouding my judgement, but I’m sure if you ask my opinion in a few months it’ll be Harry Potter. The Hunger Games is a close second.
What’s your best feature? My sparkling green eyes and my height.
