What do you like best about Pitt?
It’s a beautiful campus. I like to adventure around campus, find secret places in the cathedral, and enjoy Schenley Plaza.
What made you decide to come to Pitt?
It was an easy decision. I have lived here all of my life. I wouldn’t have to figure out real life because I am near friends and family.
What do you hope to do when you graduate?
I have no general plans – either get a job or visit friends. Ideally, I would like to travel.
What’s your favorite movie?
Probably Kill Bill. Quentin Tarentino is such a great director and it’s a fantastic duology. I also really like Seven. It stars Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman. In the movie, a murderer kills people with the seven deadly sins.
What do you like to do for fun?
I like going on adventures, hanging out with people, playing guitar, listening to music in general, crossword puzzles, and doing artsy things.
What would be your perfect day?
I would sleep until 10 or 11 and then have breakfast. The day would include some type of adventure in the sun with friends. Maybe a road trip, music experience, or concert. Then we would get coffee and play board games.
What is your favorite type of music?
Beetles and alternative.
What are your favorite bands?
The Beetles, White Stripes, Queen, Mumford and Sons, and Animal Collective.
What do you look for in a girl?
I have been criticized for my wide range of tastes when it comes to women. Ideally, she would be really funny and have a good balance between being outgoing and reserved, because I enjoy going out but I also like just sitting and watching a movie. She has to be smart, so that we can have in depth conversations. She also needs to have a broad range of interests because I like variety. I am also looking for someone who can be really whimsical – taking off your shoes and running into the woods is completely acceptable. I would also want her to like music and super love God.
What are your turn-offs?
I like someone that is confidant in who they are. It is hard to constantly reassure someone. Also, it is a turn-off when a girl cannot pay attention.
What is your favorite thing to do on a date?
My perfect date would be the same as my ideal day.
What are three words you would use to describe yourself?
Lighthearted, Idiosyncratic, Thug.
What is a piece of advice you could offer the ladies?
Dress classy. Modesty is in right now.
