What college are you applying to / going to?

I am applying to Notre Dame, Wake Forest, Georgetown, Villanova, Boston College, Clemson and Auburn.

Who was your first Wesleyan crush?

George Doane in 3rd grade.

What was your most embarrassing Wesleyan moment?

At the semifinals in soccer my sophomore year against Holy Innocents, I was grabbing snacks during halftime and I was running back to get in the huddle and I jumped over a sewer and landed on a water bottle and broke my foot. It’s okay though because Lucy Mitchell went in and played instead of me. She did fine.

What is one thing you wished you had done in high school?

Date Connor Thompson.

If you had 24 hours left to live, what would you do?

I would go to Krystal with all of my best friends.

What was your dream job when you were a little kid versus what is your dream job now?

“I have my career. You guys don’t. You want what I have. And for me it’s a waste of my time.” – Naomi Campbell

At the culmination of a long and successful year in journalism, the journalists wanted to celebrate the end of the year. And the best way they knew how came in the form of a bake-off. As the bake-off used to be an annual event, this year’s journalism class hoped to continue the tradition.
