What is on your Kenyon Bucket List?
Â
Ringing the bells would be really cool. There is a way to get to the top part of the spires of Old
Kenyon and you can get inside of it. I’d like to do that. I think it would be cool to camp out on
campus, like sleep under the stars. Also, float down the river! That’s all I have for now. OH, win
a conference championship!

Which of these is number one?
Win a conference championship!

Hopefully grad school with a mix of art management and business. And to go back and live
abroad at some point.

coast, but to live on a coast.
