Q: What are your other interests?
A: Other interests include music, athletics (specifically baseball), and escaping to the Washington wilderness.

Q: What would you like to do after college?
A: I plan to apply to graduate programs around the country this fall, and continue my studies in physics at a major research university.

Q: Tell us one strange but interesting fact about yourself.
A: One strange thing about my academic path so far is that I began college studying music and politics, and ended up at the other end of the spectrum.
