What is something about you that people would be surprised to know? I grew up riding horses and participating in FFA showing Limousine Heifers and sheep.

What is your claim to fame? The Slap Dance – ask about it sometime (but, I have to be in the mood) If you weren’t at NSU right now, where would you be? Good question

What has been your greatest accomplishment in life? At this point, succeeding in the “real world”; becoming fully independent.

Where did you have your most memorable meal & what was it? Probably after arriving back from CanCun from my senior trip…The Denny’s Grand Slam has never tasted so good.

What is your “life motto” (words that you try to live by)? YOLO You only live once

What is your earliest childhood memory? I remember being pushed around in a stroller at the Tulsa State Fair. My mom doesn’t believe that I remember it, but how else would I know about it? Not really sure how old I was, but I was pretty young.

Where/what is your favorite vacation destination? A beach.

What is the biggest lie you ever told? (pulled off or busted) Can’t reveal, as it is still in effect!

Where did you have the wildest spring break? Why was it “wild”? South Padre Island. Was my only spring break. Went with 20 great friends from NSU – anytime you have that many college aged guys, you know it is going to be pretty wild!!

What has been your most “embarrassing moment”? There comes a point when you simply can’t be embarrassed anymore. But, it probably involves doing something stupid, and waking up the next morning to the stories.

What kind of music do you listen/dance to? & what’s the best concert you’ve ever been to? I like all kinds of music. It just depends on what I am doing or what particular mood I am in at the time. The best concert I have been to would have to be the Edge Birthday concert of 1997. I went with a group of high school friends and we had a really good time.

What is one goal you have set for yourself that you haven’t yet reached? Off the top of my head…Buying a permanent residence. Not that I am ready right now, but someday I hope to own my own piece of the world.
