Relationship Status: “I’m in a kind of Bonnie and Clyde type relationship… she stole my homework, so I stole her heart.”
What is your ideal date? “Start with dinner at a fancy place (dress up), then go to a Drake concert (dress fly), and then cuddle with a movie at home (dress down). Yeah, three outfits are needed.”
What is your favorite pickup line you’ve used on a girl? “I have always felt that a gentle smile and confident eye contact does the trick. I have never been a fan of pickup lines. Respond to your surroundings and go with the flow.”
Did it work? “Yup, and if you get good at it, you’ll never need corny pickup lines.”
What is your favorite song? “‘Headlines’ by Drake.”
If you were granted three wishes, what would you wish for? “1. A mansion on a beach in Jamaica for my mom. 2. To create a business that I enjoy so much that it never feels like I am working. 3. Give everyone I care about three wishes each. Spread the love!”
What has been your favorite college memory? “I’d say it was the fall semester of my senior year and a student (I think they were a freshman) asked me where the building Casey was. Not remembering where that was, I pointed her in the direction of Wilbur by accident. I then asked my friend, Saniya Khan, if I was right, and she gave me the funniest look of shame. Another favorite memory that I have would be when my friend Saniya tried to turn me into a new college student by helping me remember buildings, teaching me how to use Lions Den, and all the other typical college stuff in my senior year.”
