A: I would describe myself as a feminist, an activist, and a bit of an eccentric nerd.

Q: What is your favorite feature on someone?

A: My favorite feature on someone would be their humor. The ability to make me laugh is quite important in a friendship.

Q: What do you look for in a woman?

A: What I like in a girl is her passion, what she will fight and live for, and it doesn’t hurt if she’s cute and has a good brain too. That’s why some of my woman crushes include Emma Watson, Tina Fey, and Rachel Maddow.

Q: What is your favorite feature on yourself?

A: My favorite feature on myself is my ability to empathize. I feel as if I can understand people on an intimate level.

Q: What makes you happy?

A: What makes me happiest is the feeling that I am making a difference in the life of a person.

A: I would love to live on the coast, and I hope to never be far removed from the mountains.

Q: What is the biggest influence in your life?

A: Currently, the biggest influence in my life is my good friend, Ryan Endres, who will soon be graduating. He has taught me more than I could ever thank him for.

Q: What is your guilty pleasure?

A: Most of my pleasures I partake in, I do so unabashedly, such as Reddit, Netflix, and good food. But only a few of my close friends know of my love for the theatre, and most recently, opera.
