What are three words to describe yourself?
Loud, caring and funny.
What advice do you have for girls trying to get your attention?
Be yourself, be natural and have fun! I like girls that are able to hold a conversation.
What are you involved with on campus?
I am on Loyola’s club cross country team, in the leadership learning community and I am a member of the American Medical Student’s Association. I’m also a Freshman Ambassador for prospective students; I help out during the Open House events.
Do you have a go to pick-up line?
Let me tie your shoes because I don’t want anyone else falling for you.
What is your favorite restaurant?
Rosebud’s in Chicago! I love their fettuccine alfredo and chicken parmesan. I enjoy classy Italian restaurants… no Olive Garden for me! (laughs)
Celebrity crush?
How do I just pick one?! I really like Jessica Simpson, Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez.
What does a typical day look like for you?
I am in the Harry Potter room really early in the morning, like 7 AM early, studying biology for hours before my first class. Then I usually get lunch with my friends and catch up with them. I have a late class in the evening, so I am usually complaining about that. Afterwards, I get dinner, see my friends again and do my homework in the lounge or IC. Very exciting, I know!
Finally… what is your favorite season/holiday?
My favorite holiday is Christmas… I have a small tree and wreath in my room. It is a slight obsession. I put decorations in the hall of my dorm so my friends down the hall can spread Christmas cheer. By the way, my favorite Christmas movie is Elf; this would be a perfect date in December, in my opinion. :)
