What is the charity you chose to represent?
The Special Olympics because I have a cousin who absolutely loves to play sports and also has down syndrome, so the best way I can help him to do what he loves is by supporting the thing that supports his favorite things.
Why do you best represent WTHS?
Because I love this school and the people in it, and I like to think I have a pretty good amount of school spirit, if nothing else.
If you could pick anyone beside yourself to win, who would it be?
Jonah, because he is a genuinely good person and someone like that deserves to have the crown.
Favorite music artist:
Tyler, the Creator. Always has been, always will be.
What TV show/movie character are you most like?
I like to think that I’m like Michael from The Office because I’m the boss of the JROTC kids, and I act like he does a lot of the time.
If you were stranded on a deserted island, what three things would you bring with you?
A pocket knife, a tarp, and a hatchet. You can survive anywhere with just those.
What teacher or faculty member has made the biggest impact on your high school career?
Most likely Colonel Lumpkin because she pushed me to do things I would never have done otherwise and made me the leader I am today.
What is your go-to Wawa order?
Ham and cheese classic, lettuce, onion and mayo. Then I get two half gallons of green tea and one of the Starbucks frappuccino thingies.
What advice would you give to underclassmen about high school? About life?
Don’t be like me and become lethargic, just do your work and don’t let yourself be lazy. It’s a vicious cycle.
What are your plans and goals for after high school?
After high school, I am going to go to Rowan for a few years and then transfer over to Drexel and get my bachelors and maybe masters in biomedical engineering. Drexel is known for being great at finding jobs after graduation, so hopefully I will be able to go right into a full-time career after that.
What is something about you most people do not know?
That, even though I do it all the time, I really, really, do not like talking to people.
Who in your life has had the biggest influence on you?
Probably my girlfriend, Aryanna, because she made me shift my view on life and get myself together a bit more. She is probably the sole reason I became more active with people and why I stepped out of the background and into the limelight.
What has been the best part about being on Mr. WT?
Messing around with the guys, and learning all the dances, even though I cannot dance at all and I’m certain that everyone going to the show will see that. (I’ll still have fun with it though)
