Involvement on campus? Why are you involved with all these things? Do you like them?

I am currently a member of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, INC. and I pledged fall 2009. I am also involved in the community services department as I was president last year. I love what I do for Oswego because I love giving back and providing my community with tons of service opportunities. I’ve also been on 4 alternative break trips. I’ve done community service in Virginia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and the Dominican Republic.

 

What’s your favorite thing to do in your spare time?

I love being active. I workout daily and play basketball as much as I can. I also like to bowl i’m getting so much better! Anyone want to go bowling?

 

Why are you so active, would you consider yourself a “health nut?”

Like I said, I like to work out but i LOVE to eat! I try to eat 5-6 times a day. Food makes me so so so happy. If you could have any superpower what would it be? It would be the power of laughter so I could make the girl of my dreams (when I find her) laugh whenever she was sad =)

 

Goals after college? Why?

I plan to attend grad school after I take a year off to volunteer and work under a physical therapist. My goal to to get my doctorates in Physical Therapy and hopefully own my a sports therapy clinic.

 

Favorite professor at SUNY Oswego?

Dr. Kenneth Marshall. Funniest, realest, black professor in Oswego.

 

What is your all time favorite candy?

I love gummies!!! gummy bears, gummy worms, life savers gummies mmmmmm!

 

What do you love about Oswego and Oswego students?

Oswego is pretty POPPIN for a small town. On any given night can be the best night of your life and everyone loves to have a good time whether you are tall, short, black, white, or asian. It doesn’t matter.
