亚洲情色 You
What is your personal motto?
鈥淪how, don鈥檛 tell.鈥
How do you spend your free time?
Spending time with my family, listening to vinyl records, creating memes, engaging in my community, kayaking, running!
What would people be surprised to learn about you?
I love quilts. Especially comfortable ones. I鈥檒l make an ill-advised financial decision based on a really nice quilt.
Who is your favorite musician/band/performer and why?
This is always such a tough question. But right now it鈥檚 probably IDLES. They create incredible, passionate, culturally relevant music out of the simplest of ideas. Plus, they are also fans of Hall & Oates! Also check out Puscifer, Viagra Boys, and Big Wreck. There are so many ways to experience music and support the artists by buying directly from them.
Who at Moravian most influenced you and how?
I鈥檇 have to say my peers. While I had some amazing professors and other faculty, I felt I was engaging the most when I was working directly with my peers on projects and events. That was always a great feeling that I try to replicate today!
Share your favorite memory from Moravian.
When, in the middle of class, Michael Jordan called the cell phone of our adjunct professor, and Sports Illustrated writer, Jack McCallum. Class dismissed!
What was your favorite meal in the dining hall?
Really jogging my memory here, but the cereal selection was impressive in the early 2000s at least, and they always had enough ice cream.
What advice would you give to a current student?
Keep an open mind and be prepared for change. Roll with it. It鈥檚 part of the whole thing.
Why is it important for you to serve/volunteer?
I was able to have an incredible education due to those who came before me and chose to give back. I want to continue that.
How do you believe Lighting the Way will help our students, their future, and the next generation?
Moravian students deserve and need the best if they are going to compete in a rapidly changing world. The only way to ensure that is to continue to strategically invest in that future together.
What are you most excited to see Lighting the Way make possible for Moravian?
While the academic and hands-on learning opportunities are paramount, I鈥檇 be lying if I said I wasn鈥檛 really excited about watching a soccer game from the upper floors at the new HUB
