Where are you from? Windsor, California
What organizations are you a part of? I am the Vice President of Communications for Lambda Iota chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi.
Who are your favorite musicians? I listen to all kinds of music, but if I had to choose my favorite singer is probably Lana Del Rey. My favorite genre is country music, and my favorite country artists are Billy Currington, Keith Urban, and Dierks Bentley. I also listen to a lot of alternative music like Panic! At the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Foster the People, The Script, Fitz and the Tantrums, and Coldplay. I also like hip-hop—especially Hoodie Allen.
What is your favorite food? I don’t think I can choose one, but I really like every kind of breakfast food.
What is your dream date? Definitely Disneyland, or any kind of theme park. I love rides!
If you could study abroad anywhere for free, where would you go? I definitely want to study in England because I have never been there, and I’m interested in the culture and am a big fan of Harry Potter. I’d also like to be in a central location where I can travel all over to places like the Netherlands, Ireland, Scotland, and France.
What is the highlight of your UCSD experience so far? Being a founding member of UCSD’s chapter of Alpha Omicron Pi because colonizing a sorority has been one of the most rewarding experiences, and I know that I have found my future bridesmaids. Also, I’m really excited to see how it grows in the next few years!
