Something not everyone knows about you: I’m an only child and I’ve never broken a bone! (But I have had two kidney stones,
wouldn’t recommend.)
Favorite Quote: “Change is the healthiest way to survive.” – Karl Lagerfeld
Best Advice for College Students: Try something new that you wouldn’t typically do and learn about something that
challenges your beliefs and identities—you don’t have to change your beliefs but having
more knowledge is always good.
Favorite OSU memory: One of my favorite things about being an alumnus is walking through the Formal Gardens by the Union and seeing the paving stone with my name on it from my service to the Interfraternity Council while in undergrad; it always makes me think about so many great memories that came from one decision.
