What extracurricular activities are you involved in on and off campus?

Â
Name one thing that most people don’t expect from you when they see you:
There is a playfulness and energy about me that is usually overshadowed by my professional manner.
Â
What is your theme song?
It is hard to say, really. I would guess that it is a theme involving lots of string instruments, drums, and a choir. Whatever sounds impressive coming into a room.
Â
What type of music do you like to listen to?
Classical, Hip Hop, R&B, Latin (usually jazz, salsa, and reggaeton), and Jazz.
Â
What do you look for in a mate?
A strong sense of purpose that syncs with my own, a love for human life and a desire to improve mankind, interest or knowledge in politics, a passion for self-improvement, a kind heart, and a fascination with learning anything, and a worldliness about her.
Â
What’s your best feature?
My romantic perspective on most of all things: from relationships, to politics, to the ideals of mankind.
What’s your biggest pet peeve?
Vulgarity and a lack of organization in life.
Â
What are your plans after graduation?
Like most in my major, I plan on going to law school. My purpose for this is to equip myself for a political career. As an end to that, I seek to be involved in international
relations and my goal is to run for a position in the U.S. Congress.
Â
What is your ultimate goal in life?
I have wanted to become the President of the United States since I was little, and IÂ have not changed that aspiration going into college. I intend to see my ambitions through.
Â
What else should people know about you?
I am more than just my politics. I have a strong sense of honor and commitment to my friends and family, and my passions are what define me. I don’t give up on the things a commit to and I don’t break promises if I can help it.
