Name: Alex Lafortune (the guy in the picture!)
Year: 1T3 – 3rd year
Program: Mechanical Engineering
Faculty: Engineering
Hometown: Ottawa
Status: In a relationship
Favourite part of U of T: It’s so easy to meet people on a campus as big as ours. All of my best friends on campus are people I just walked up to one day. There’s always something going on that brings people together.
Favourite characteristic in a girl: I definitely click with a girl who’s outgoing, confident, and laid back. I really like a girl who’s not afraid to be straightforward with me; and I’m a sucker for blondes.
Favourite date: I like to keep things chill, like going out to a nice bar where we can just chat and get to know each other.
Deal breaker: I like a lot of shy girls, but if I can’t hold a conversation and laugh out loud a bit, I just end up feeling uncomfortable.
Hobbies: Swing dancing, guitar, writing music, taekwondo, and working on my bike
Food: I can’t pick one, but if I had to… beer and wings, especially after a long day.
