What is your dream job?
“To be a wildlife ranger at Jurassic Park, or a mix between Indiana Jones and Dr. Alan Grant. Really though, I would like to be a tropical ecologist specializing in anti-animal trafficking. I want to stop poaching. Elephants are so sexy, big, and gray.”
What is something cool about you that not a lot of people know?
“Well, it’s got to be cool, but I am pretty average. Right now I’m researching extinct sharks, which is awesome. I’m going to Honduras over Christmas break. I also have 20 tattoos, with many more to come. I want to get sharks on my chest, like a shark collar.”
If you had to pick spirit animal, what would it be?
“Jeff Goldblum. Other than that, all my spirit animals are dead. (In reference to dinosaurs, of course.)”
How would you describe your dream girl?
“I’m thinking like a young Jane Goodall. Someone intelligent, articulate, and free-willed, preferably someone who is compassionate for the plight of the state of our natural world.”
If you had to eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?
“Pizza. It fills the hole in my stomach where my soul should be.”
If you had an autobiography, what would it be called?
“I Want To Be Jeff Goldblum: The Eric Brown Story”
What is your favorite pickup line to use?
“UHHHHHH *turn around and run away*”
Who is your celebrity crush?
“Jhene Aiko. She has the most beautiful voice- ever.”
If you could give any advice to your 10-year-old-self, what would it be?
“Do what makes you happy.”
How do you feel about being this week’s Campus Cutie?
“Pretty great! Do you think I can I put this on my CV? Would grad schools like it?”
