How are you involved on campus: I’m Head of Layout for the Buzz, BU’s only student-run lifestyle magazine. Keep an eye out for our upcoming fall issue!
Favorite place to eat off campus: I’m a big fan of brunch, and Aquitaine French Bistro on Tremont Street has one of the best weekend brunch menus around. I recommend their brioche French toast with a side of bacon—it’s delicious. And pretty affordable.
Ski or Snowboard: Snowboard, but not well. Whenever I’m on a mountain surrounded by that much snow I prefer to lock myself in a log cabin with a good book and a warm drink.
Favorite food: Definitely black raspberry pie. Or black raspberry ice cream. I’m fortunate enough to work for berry farmers back in Virginia, so I’ve had quite a few homemade berry deserts that would knock anyone’s socks off.
Weird fact: I will never eat chocolate or peanut butter.
Favorite sports team: The Pats all the way. My parents have had season tickets since I was about 6 so it’d practically be sacrilege to profess a love for any other team.
Favorite music/band/genre: My favorite band seems to change with the season, but bands and artists that are pretty much staples are The Velvet Underground, Joanna Newsom, Fleetwood Mac, and The Postal Service. Although every now and then you can definitely catch me listening to something silly like old Taking Back Sunday albums.
