This boy-next-door has it all: body, heart, and mind. Appy, as he is known to his friends, is always up for a good time. Not only does he train his body (he’s almost down to a six-minute mile!), but this cutie has the brains to match. On a typical day, you can find him conducting mock interviews for Engineering Career Services or acting as Vice President of the Engineering Career Fair Team. He is also an active member of Theta Tau, the engineering fraternity, where he takes pride in his allegiance to his academic field. As for heart, imagine a date in the warm summer sand, watching the sunset over a pacific sea. When dinnertime rolls around, your date shares his native culture with you by preparing a feast of South Indian cuisine. This goofy romantic will help you balance your crazy schedule with his level head and sweet encouragement, listen to your problems and sincerely help you get where you want to go. What more could a girl ask for?
