1. What do you love most about being an Aggie? I love that being an Aggie can mean so many different things. I love that just that word evokes so many feelings, associations and such an overwhelming sense of pride. Everything that is represented on our Aggie rings, everything that this institution has come to represent, can all be expressed with the name Aggie.

2. If you had three hours of free time, what would you do with it? I would spend free time with friends and family catching up, and getting away for a little while and relaxing. I would love to spend it together at the lake, or on the water somewhere would be nice.

3. When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? I always wanted to grow up and be a Major League Baseball player. I always thought that my long summers and years of baseball would pay off and that I would play for my hometown Astros.

4. What are your goals for after graduation? After graduation I hope to get a job. I am not exactly sure where I would like to work yet, but I know that I will be with an oil and gas company doing some form of exploration and production. I would like to work for a U.S., independent company that both drills and operates their wells.

5. What is your favorite memory made at Aggieland so far? I have had so many great memories in my time in Aggieland, there really are too many to recount. The most recent would easily be the night of run-off election results. There is no feeling that can compare to, or no words that can adequately describe standing at Sul Ross with so many friends and peers and hearing your name being called, and knowing that your dream just became a reality.
