What do you do on campus?
I’m starting an Olympic weightlifting squad second semester. I’m studying for my Biochem major and I’m a singer in the Colby Eight a cappella group.

What’s one girl trend you don’t understand?
Girls get all dolled up and slutty looking on weekends, but frown upon guys looking at them.

What do you look for in a girl? How about a deal breaker?
A girl who has goals and knows what she wants out of life is important. Also, no bitches.

If a girl offered to make you dinner, what would you ask her to cook?
Garlic lime steak with sweet potatoes and broccoli.

What’s your most embarrassing moment?
Fell over in my chair in Dana…

What’s your favorite pick-up line?
Hi.

What makes you different from the average Colby student?
I am an Olympic weightlifter and an a cappella singer; you don’t get too much further apart on the spectrum from that.

What’s #1 on your Colby bucket list?
…..in Miller Library.

How did your first kiss go down?
Awkwardly, in a game of spin the bottle.

If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would it be and why?
Greece or Italy, I really want to go to the Mediterranean. Or Tobago.

What’s the worst thing about being a freshman boy?
Nobody wants freshman guys at a party. They serve no social function other than consuming all the alcohol.

Any guilty pleasures?
Super Smash Bros.

What’s your dream job?
Psychiatrist.

What kind of shampoo do you use?
Pert 2 in 1.

Finish this sentence: if you really knew me, you’d know that…
I know what I want in life, but I over-plan everything.
