Garrett Sanders, a California native, reveals his perfect date, his celeb crush, and his secret to being able to win over the hearts of everyone.

Name: Garrett Sanders

Major: Organizational Communications

Year: 2015

What’s your favorite part of the day?

My favorite part of the day would have to be around 9 or 10 at night because normally you have all your stuff that you have to do doe and you can just do whatever you feel like! Like watch How I Met Your Mother.

You won Mr. Corrado after being here for only a couple months, how do you explain being that charming?

One of my biggest goals everyday is to make people laugh. So, I think I just put the judges in a good mood. And I gave them puppy dog eyes a few times, works like magic.

What is your version of a perfect date?

First off, any date would be perfect if it was with the right girl. But if I was planning one it would start off as a candle lit picnic on a beach, then a walk by the ocean. Afterwards we would go to a frozen yogurt place with a huge toppings bar. Then I would drive her home and respectfully give her a goodnight kiss.

Who is your celebrity crush and what would you do if you got the chance to meet them?

My celebrity crush is Lucy Hale from the show Pretty Little Liars. I seriously started watching that show just cause of her. if I met her I wish I could say something clever and witty. But in reality I would probably be at a loss for words and eventually just call her beautiful.

What are three words that you think describe you?

Three words that describe e are “adorably confused.” Yes, that is one word. “Sing-y” is another one, which is a made up word that means I sing all the time, and “Great Listener.”

 
I am studying Organizational Communication with a emphasis in Public Relations at the lovely University of Portland. I grew up in Salem, Oregon, but I absolutely love living in the city. My hobbies are reading, writing (obviously), running, and watching cat videos. And eating. I also love window shopping in the Pearl District, going to the Saturday market, and trying out new restaurants.
Hailing from eastern Washington, Julia attends the University of Portland in Oregon, as a Communication Studies major with an emphasis on Journalism. As a magazine and book junkie, Julia reads everything (and anything) she can get her hands on, especially those passionate on young adult culture and entertainment. A woman that gets stir-crazy easily, Julia has been fortunate to have traveled many summers in a row to foreign countries, including a study abroad course in Austria, Germany, and Great Britain. Since a ripe age, she has grown and cultivated her passion and dream of working for a magazine and spreading awareness as well as happiness through the tips of her fingers. Always finding time for herself, Julia can frequently be found quoting movie lines (most frequently Will Ferrell or Vince Vaughn), having a 90's dance party with her roommates, or rereading "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" for the 40th time.
