What are you involved with on campus? I’ve been a sister of Phi Mu sorority for three years now and I’m also going on my second year being on the Relay For Life Executive Committee for JMU.

Describe your dream date. My dream date would be a road trip to the beach so we could spend the day by the water. Of course on the drive down we would have to stop to buy Slurpee’s and jerky at Wawa. Then at night we would have dinner on the beach while we watch the waves all night.

I love escaping to the beach because the smell of the salt air and the sound of the waves makes me feel like there’s so much beauty in the world and nothing could go wrong. But that’s a dream date. I would be just as happy if the guy cooks dinner and we spend the night on the couch watching action or scary movies!

Who makes the first move? Well, I think it always depends on the guy. Personally, I’m a very outgoing person so when I meet a shy person then I’m usually the first one to make a move. But, if the guy is just as outgoing as I am, then I let him make the first move.

What do you look for in a guy? My mom always taught me to look for a man with a good heart. I love when a guy is super involved and is known for being a good person. I look for someone who loves with all his heart and who will make me a better person.

What turns you off about a guy? Arrogance is a major turn off! I don’t understand how boys think it’s attractive to be cocky. A man who doesn’t love his mom is also a turn off, as well as a guy who is not very hygienic. Ewww!

Do you have any secret talents? I am an amazing cook! I don’t even need a recipe, all you have to do is buy me a bunch of groceries and I can cook up any kind of dinner. My personal specialty is Italian food!

I am a junior at JMU studying Media Arts & Design- Corporate Communication. I am a member of Phi Mu Fraternity in addition to Her Campus! I was born in Troy, OH and grew up in both Kings Mountain, NC and Richmond, VA. I am the oldest child, the only blonde in my immediate family, and the only one who has 20/20 vision.
