Year: Junior
Major: Physics
Hometown: Charlotte, NC
Favorite movies: Space Jam, Beyond the Lights, Pursuit of Happyness, Training Day
Typical day at W&M: Well, to be honest, any given weekday of mine is usually very different from the other ones. But typically, I try to go to class in the morning, and then get something to eat before I go workout. Right after I have my workout, I run right over to football practice which usually runs from the late afternoon into the early evening. After football practice is usually when my days veer off into different directions. These events could range from a number of different types of meetings, to worship band practice, or to just hanging out with friends.
Favorite TV show: Burn Notice
Your life motto: Proverbs 3:5-7 and “You always have a choice”
Spot on campus where you love to hang out: Any Ewell Hall piano room
Hobbies: I love playing the piano, watching movies, talking to different people, and sleeping!
Fun Fact about yourself: Hmmm, I guess something that not many people know about me is that I am an Eagle Scout via the Boy Scouts of America. It was something I was involved in all throughout my childhood and finished up right before high school ended. Unfortunately, some people aren’t even aware of what it is; but it has afforded me many opportunities. It was through this organization that I was able to join the Junior USA Shooting Team.
Romance and Relationships
Ideal Date: As a movie lover, the classic dinner and a movie combo is perfect for me every time.
Favorite Pick-Up Line to Use: Oh wow haha. I’m honestly not sure if I have ever used one. I usually just introduce myself and go from there. I kind of pride myself on being able to create meaningful conversation out of nowhere. I like that quality about myself. But if I had to choose a favorite, it would definitely be the “angel falling down from heaven” one.
Celebrity Crush: Gabrielle Union, always has been.
Best Love Songs: All my Life by KC and JoJo, July by Jhene Aiko ft. Drake, Rest of My Life by Bruno Mars
Most attractive quality in a girl: I don’t know if this counts as a quality but when a girl has her priorities in check, it seems like she just “gets it”. If you “get it”, I can appreciate that.
The most romantic thing you’ve ever done: One of my former girlfriends had a birthday, and I basically had everything that I could control tailored to her likes and dislikes. For example, I had her favorite songs play on the radio, had her favorite restaurant cleared out, her favorite dishes served, favorite flowers waiting outside at the car we were riding in, it was the whole nine yards. This is all on top of the basics of taking her out and showering her with gifts and what not. It was a good time.
Favorite place in Williamsburg: The College Creek beachy area near the parkway. It wasn’t until relatively recently that this became a spot for me to go. I’m actually not even a beach person but there’s just something about being out there, especially at night time (when it’s not too cold). It’s just a serene environment that allows you to really think and reflect. The only competition that spot has is Ewell Hall.
Your go-to outfit for a date: It obviously depends on the type of date and what we’re going to do. But I definitely try to look good!
Must-haves for a girlfriend: Patience, moral decency, physical attraction, easy-going personality, and a good sense of humor.
