Her Campus Emory (HCE): What are you best at?
Patrick (P): I am the best at knowing random facts which do not always pertain to the conversation.

HCE: What is your pet-peeve?
P: My pet-peeve is when people text during dinner. It probably comes from family dinners back home and I just find it respectful not to text during dinner.

HCE: What is the most romantic thing you’ve ever done for a girl?
P: I made dinner for my girlfriend and her best friend. I was cooking in Clairmont Tower while they were at a study session. They were coming to Clairmont and another building’s fire alarm went off. They thought I had burned their apartment down! They were relieved to see the breaded pork chops, green beans, yams, and cheesecake instead of a burned kitchen.

HCE: Who is your celebrity crush?
P: Mila Kunis… hands down.

HCE: What is your favorite chick flick?
P: Thats a tough one, I would have to go with Love Actually. Its a great romantic comedy, especially for Christmas and New Years.

HCE: Who do you aspire to be?
P: I aspire to be my father. I believe that he embodies many of the things I want to achieve. I have looked up to him all my childhood and continue to look up to him today.

HCE: What is your favorite song?
P: My favorite song has to be Knee Deep by Zac Brown Band ft Jimmy Buffett because it is a relaxing song about getting away and enjoying life.

HCE: What is the most dangerous thing you’ve ever done?
P: I would have to say, scare off a black bear in the smokey mountains while leading an OEO trip. I am thankful that everyone was safe and for the help of two other hikers in scaring off the bear.
 

Jessica lives her life at several speeds. She talks too fast, eats too slow and over-analyzes too much.  When she’s not telling long-winded stories, sitting alone at the dinner table, or staring off into space, Jessica loves all things creative. Screenwriter, play director and poet at age 9, songwriter and choreographer at age 16, now, at 23, all she really wants to do is write, help others, and post Instagrams.  As a social media coordinator for multiple fashion brands, and a post-grad writer for Her Campus, she gets to do just that. Jessica is a Midwestern girl from the suburbs of Chicago, but she fell in love with city living during a summer internship in the Big Apple, and now calls NYC home. Jessica loves chocolate milkshakes, dance parties, Chippewa Ranch Camp, Friends re-runs, Chuck Bass and of course, spending time with her fans (read: family and friends).
