How would you describe your personal style?  Depends on the day.  For the most part, I will wear anything from American Eagle or PacSun, and I love bracelets
 
What are your career goals?  I really want to work in retail – hopefully something with planning or demand forecasting
 
What’s your favorite…
  • Bar Uptown?  45
  • Dinosaur?  Pterodactyl, for sure.  What could be cooler than flying?
  • 90’s song?  Barbie Girl by Aqua
  • Class at Miami?  MUS 100D – Miami University Choraliers!
  • Concert you’ve been to?  The Honda Civic Tour in Chicago in 2007: Fall Out Boy, +44, The Academy Is, Paul Wall, and Cobra Starship
 
What qualities do you look for in a guy/girl?  Someone who is funny, smart, athletic, and outgoing.  If they’re into outdoor activities and appreciate music, that’s also a plus.
 
What is one thing that is on your bucket list?  Travel to California and take surfing lessons while I’m there
 
Describe your ideal date:  For my dream date, we would go to Texas Roadhouse (I don’t know what more you could want than endless baskets of cinnamon buttered rolls), and then watch a scary movie at a drive-in theater, because I’ve never been to one and I’ve always wanted to go.  If we’re near a beach, I would also be up for a nice long walk by the ocean.
 
If you could have dinner with one person dead or alive, who would it be?  Joseph Gordon-Levitt from 500 Days of Summer.  I love that man.
