What is you favorite medium of art?
 

“Pencil or charcoal because they’re the easiest to work with, they are portable and easy to manipulate”

How do you manage to do various activities and be a part of a bunch of organizations, and still maintain your sanity? 
 

“I have to do a lot of things… otherwise I’m never productive. Being in a lot of organizations and having a lot of commitments helps me manage my time and forces me to plan ahead. That way I can figure out when I have to do my homework and such.”

Why did you choose to attend Mount Holyoke?
 

“I thought it was beautiful. The community was nice and I had two cousins and a few friends go here before I did, and they only told me great things about the school. Pretty much, I got good vibes.”

So I hear you just became a Zumba instructor. What inspired this?
 

“I wanted to be able to teach Zumba here, but it turns out students can’t actually teach. Other than that I did the training because I’m obsessed with Zumba; it’s a great way to release energy and stress, and is such a fun workout!”

What would your spirit animal be and why?
 

“A white tiger because they’re fierce and rare and beautiful and… I sound like a drag queen!”

If you could have an endless supply of any food, what would you have?
 

“That’s not fair! …I’m going to say rice because its so adaptable and there are pretty much 8 million things you can make with rice.”
