What are you most involved in at Conn? I’m on the basketball team at Conn and a key member of Club Tril.

Most treasured possession? My piano. Adele serenades happen to be my specialty.

Favorite movie, book, and musical artist? Good Will Hunting is definitely my favorite movie. Also love any of the Harry Potter books. I’d have to go with James Taylor for favorite musical artist.

If you took a Conn girl out on a date in New London, what would the night consist of?
I’d have my boys down at Ridge 21 cook us a nice candlelit dinner and then we’d snuggle by the fireplace.

What was your most embarrassing moment? My senior year I was planning on singing “Dear Mama” by Kanye West to my mom for the Mr. Weymouth High School Pageant Show but I got major stage fright and forgot the lyrics mid-song.

Do you have a “Spirit Animal”? Honestly had no idea what this meant so I took a quiz online and it said I’m a wolverine. I’ll go with it.

What do you look for in a girl? Sense of humor, down to earth, nice smile.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be? Definitely mind reading.

What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done for a girl? I asked a girl to prom in front of 2,000 people my senior year of high school.

Give me your best pickup line: How much does a polar bear weigh? Enough to break the ice…Hi I’m Pat!

Blondes, brunettes, or redheads? Been a brunette guy in the past but I’m open for change.

Biggest turn ons? A girl who can sing. A nice voice is the fastest way to my heart.

What’s your greatest fear: Heights without a doubt. I get scared walking across the AC bridge. It shakes a little bit when cars go underneath it!

Guilty pleasure? Watching chick flicks with Nate Milne and Danny Tripolsky.
