Name: Sam Brackley
Year: Freshman
Hometown: Mechanicville, VA
Major/minor: Just musical theatre at the moment! Hopefully I’ll have a minor in the future, but right now I’m focusing on getting my skills ready for the world outside of JMU.
Campus Involvement: I’ve been fortunate to have a pretty busy first year here at JMU. I’m involved with Madison Equality on campus as well as the Stratford Players down at the Forbes Center. Last semester I was in a Director’s Fest one-act show and this semester I was a part of an amazing show called Sylvia. Being a part of various things has really helped me enjoy being a part of the JMU community.
Relationship Status: Single!
Favorite Hobbies: I love being outside, hiking, and ooh—traveling! I’d love to go all over the world! I’m working on a bucket list!
What you look for in a guy: Somebody who’s confident in themselves and someone I can click with. I love it when someone can have the confidence to make the first move. I mainly look for someone who I like spending time with.
Biggest turn-offs in a guy: I hate it when someone talks down to me. Being in a relationship means that we’re both on an equal playing field.
Favorite memory: My favorite memory would probably be going to New York City with my family for the first time. We went and did all sorts of “touristy” things – it was awesome.
Going to the big apple definitely influenced me to choose my career.
Hidden fact: I’m a triplet!
