What’s your idea of a perfect date? We’d start out in PA and end up in New Jersey. It’s a nice 70 degree breezy day in Philadelphia. We take a nice stroll down Kelly Drive. We watch the boat races. We throw out a blanket, lay down, enjoy the sun and watch the people walking by. After a lovely morning at Kelly drive, we go have lunch on the rooftop deck of the Continental. Afterwards, we would drive down together to Summer’s Point in New Jersey and then we would go for a boat ride on my boat and stay out there and watch the sun set.
What is something most of Drexel doesn’t know about you: The reason I’ve been so fortunate to visit so many places around the world is because I used to be a member of the Keystone State Boy Choir.
What made you choose Drexel as your campus? I chose Drexel because Drexel is a well known school and they offered me great financial aid. Going into college I knew that I wanted to major in something related to computers and I knew that the coop program would help me determine what career path best suits my personality and teamwork skills.
