Describe yourself in three words: Reflective, Compassionate, Driven

If you could be a superhero, which one would you be and why? I would be Static Shock because I grew up on that cartoon and I’ve always found myself to have a certain magnetism…
What are you involved with on campus? I am the former president of the Black Men’s Forum, sitting member of the Harvard Alumni Association Building Community Committee, and Harvard Senior Class Marshal!
What is your favorite Harvard memory? During my freshman year at Harvard, I had the ability to perform in Washington, D.C. at the JFK Center for the Performing Arts for the 50th anniversary celebration of JFK’s inauguration with the Harvard Glee Club. Along with the rush of the performance, giving Morgan Freeman a solid pound was pretty spectacular.
What do you look for in a significant other? I look for a passion that shines through that person’s actions and interactions with her peers. Essentially, someone who is not afraid to be a purposeful leader.
What is your best physical trait? I’ve been told I have nice eyes.
Describe your ideal date: One of my favorite places in the US is Sedona, Arizona, a cozy mountainous town in northern Arizona that is famous for its scenic red rocks. I would love to take a young lady to Sedona and walk one of the beautiful trails before getting prickly pear ice cream at Black Cow Cafe. Hopefully the day would end up with some nice relaxation and jazz music (Sedona also has great jazz) watching the moon rise above the mountains.
