So, you look like Dave Franco. Can you tell me about an encounter you’ve had with students here at Fairfield calling you out on this? There was one random girl when I was going to class stopped me and said “Has anyone told you that you look like Dave Franco?” and it’s picked up since then.
Favorite NFL Team: NY Jets
If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life what would it be? Sausage panini from La Fettunta in Florence
Favorite thing about Fairfield: Everyone here is really nice, I have made a lot of good friends over the past 4 years. I’m sad to be leaving in a few months but I’ve really enjoyed my time here.
Favorite FU Professor: Professor Serazio. He’s not here anymore but he was a Comm professor. Coolest guy I have ever met.
Favorite Musician: Kenny Chesney
Celebrity Crush: Carrie Underwood
Hobbies: I like to read, watch sports and surf. I am also involved in intramural dodgeball, handball, and softball
Pet peeve: Not using a turn signal while driving. I hate that.
Ideal Valentine’s Day date: Probably going ice skating in Rockefeller Center and walking around Central Park then grabbing a nice dinner at Smith and Wollensky.
Biggest turn-off: I’m personally not a huge fan of red lipstick, and if you’re just not a nice person in general that’s a huge turn off.
What’s your favorite pick-up line? From one of Sam Hunt’s songs… “You know smoke follows beauty baby, right?”
Plans for after graduation: I am hoping to get a job and stay at home for a few years, then get an apartment in the city and see where things go from there.
Do you sing in the shower? Yes, I do. 100% do. All the time.
What is something no one knows about you? I have 62 direct cousins. It could be more but I don’t know.
Do you know all of their names? I like to think that I do.
If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you want to be? Florence. Not even a question. It’s by far m favorite city in the world.
What are you never seen without? I was going to say clothes but uh… hmm a serious answer… my lucky coin. I am never without this *whips out coin* I found it last year and I’ve just been holding onto it.
Has it brought you any luck? Umm.. I can’t think of anything off the top of my head. But one day it will come to good use.
