One bucket list item: I really want to drive across Australia and surf for about 3 months – travel, surf, be the creepy hippie guy in Australia.

Post graduation plans: It’s still pretty up in the air. Maybe run a Fortune 500 company. Or actually just take a bunch of years off and travel around and not really do anything. Or maybe med school. That was the original plan.

Favorite trip: My favorite was to Nicaragua for a surf trip- it was beautiful and wild and awesome and the surf was awesome every single day. We went with 10 of my family members and every single one of us surf. We all just had so much fun.

Describe your perfect date: It’s warm outside. I’m wearing shorts. She’s not wearing anything. Just kidding. There’s a really cool restaurant in Wilmington with a boat dock and you can drive right up there, tie the boat up, eat dinner, and it’s just a real cool time.

Biggest turn offs: Tall, boring or unadventurous girls, people who won’t dance (I dance a lot.)

Favorite thing about UNC: Gotta be the people. That, or going to class every morning at 8am.
