Favorite season: “By far my favorite season is Fall. For starters its the season of my birthday and Halloween so that makes it even more great. The cool weather, the leaves falling and the fashion just make the season lovable. I love to put on a sweater with a blanket scarf some leggings and combat boots, throw my hair in a bun, and grab some Starbucks.”
 
Secret skill: “It’s not a secret to those that know me but I have a skill for cooking and baking. Both sides of my family were in the restaurant business and I’ve inherited the genes from them. I love making a great meal for my friends or a tasty treat for myself. There is so much you can do with food and I love to sit and experiment with it!”
 
Spirit animal: “Definitely Beyonce. I mean who doesn’t think Beyonce is their spirit animal. I love how she presents herself as a confident woman but throws in some sexiness to her image.”
 
Best Stony Brook memory so far: “My best memory so far in college was being a part of Rocky Horror Picture Show as Magenta in my junior year. I’ve been a part of a couple shows here on campus with Stony Brook’s Pocket Theater Club but that has been by far my favorite. It was my first musical ever and the experience and friends that I gained from it was unbelievable. I wish I could do it all over again!”
