Name: Kris Gundersen

Year: Sophomore (’14)

Major: Business Administration, International Relations

Hometown: Bellevue, Washington

Relationship status: Single

Campus activities: Alpha Kappa Psi, AU Men’s Club Ultimate, being amazing, being humble.

Best AU memory: Racing around Ward Circle in the middle of the night dressed in Mario and Luigi MarioKart costumes. And winning of course.

Favorite restaurant in DC: Jaleo or Matchbox

Three things you can’t live without: Frank Sinatra, Barney Stinson, and my iPhone/iPod

What you look for in a girl: Dazzlingly brilliant eyes, a little bit of snarkiness, an amazing genuine laugh to go along with her amazing sense of humor, the ability to stick up for herself but also let her man defend her when needed, and good looks and sense of personal style.

Describe the perfect date: A trip to a nice, private, snow-covered chalet where we have a candlelit dinner that we both cook together after we have a massive snowball fight outside. Oh, and cuddling by the fire is always an option…

Celebrity crush: Kate Beckinsale (the accent is a plus, but not required)
