• Why did you join Phi Sigma Pi?
• I was looking to join a club on campus where I could meet new people with similar interests. I found PSP and as I got to know more about the people and the activities of the fraternity I thought it was a perfect fit for me.
• How has it changed your life since you decided to join? (Brothers only)
• I have become more confident and learned to work with groups (I tend to like to run the show – big surprise, I know J). I have also built friendships with people who I would have never met without PSP and I know that even when I graduate these friendships will continue!
• Sum up Delta Rho in three words/phrases

• Awkward (which is why I fit in so well), Full of inspiration, A home away from home.
• Do you think people can change?
• I believe that certain things about people can change. I think that who people are is engrained in them, but they can change the way they act/react in a situation and their opinions and ideas can change over time as well.
• What is one misconception people have about you?
• That I’m intimidating

• What do you think about when you are alone in your car?
• Mostly my future: conversations I want to have with people, what I’ll do over the weekend, when I’ll get to visit my family out of town, and other things of that nature.

• How would you rate your memory?
• If I do something embarrassing I’ll remember it forever! If it’s a homework assignment I’ll forget it unless I write it down.
• Would you say you are more introverted or extroverted?
• Definitely introverted
• Biggest pet peeve?
• When people don’t know how to use an apostrophe.
• If you could only listen to one artist for the rest of your life (but they could sing any song), who would it be?
• Kelly Clarkson
• Growing up, what were your favorite toys to play with as a child?

• What are you looking forward to?

• Do you prefer the beach or the mountains? 
• Hmmm, difficult question. I do love the Colorado Mountains and I like to snowboard, but the beach is so inviting and pretty as well. Can I have both?
• Any advice for future members?
• Always be yourself; if something is bothering you speak up; don’t let one bad day ruin your PSP experience.
