Why did you chose Central?

I chose Central because it was the college the felt the most like home.  I didn’t want to pick Central because most of my family has gone and I wanted to be different.  Being at Central I have been able to become my own person and not be in the shadow of my family.

Favorite professor and why?

All of my professors are great! My favorite professor is probably Oscar Reynaga.  I had him for intersections and there was one day where he taught our class how to salsa dance.  He really helped to make the transition to college easier.

Who are your go-to musical artists ?

My go to musical artist has to be Relient K.  They are a little old school but they will always be great.

You’re majoring in computer science because? 

I am majoring in computer science because I love to work with computers and there are endless opportunities in the technology field.  After college, I hope to be a web developer or a mobile app developer.

Are you better at tennis or ping pong?

Ping pong, hands down…Just ask CJ Cliff or Jacob Logan.

Describe your perfect sandwich.

My perfect sandwich is a pulled pork barbeque sandwich.  The barbeque sauce must come from Jethro’s barbeque.  Also the more meat the better.

Biggest pet peeves?

My biggest pet peeve is when people complain…but I complain all the time too so it’s good that I think my complaints are important.  They really aren’t any more important though.

If you had to give up one of your five senses, which one would it be and why?
 
I would give up smell so then I would not have to smell my smelly teammates.  Just kidding, I don’t think that my life would be as affected by not smelling as it would be from losing other senses.

Professional player that you’d pick as a doubles partner

I don’t really follow tennis but I would choose Gael Monfils because he is fun to watch.  Look him up on youtube, it is worth your time.

Teammate who could be a reality show star

Jimmy Cunningham.  He has the most laid-back and relaxed attitude of any person I have ever met.  Just watch him play tennis.

Favorite TV Show

My favorite TV show is The Office.  Creed thoughts is an actual website.  Check it out at http://www.officequotes.net/creedThoughts.php

What’s one thing people might not know about Coach Ferrell?

Well everyone knows how loud he is, but few people know that he drinks monster like most people drink water.  That is the secret to all of his energy.

What’s your favorite part about being a member of Central tennis?

My favorite part of being on the Central tennis team is the teammates.  I love spending time with them and the team comradery that we have.

“Ten years from now I’ll...”

Ten years from now, I’ll be working and hopefully have a family.  I will be still playing tennis and I will be receiving all sorts of letters about donating to Central.

Favorite food from Central Market

Barbeque nacho bar!  If you can’t tell, I really like barbeque.

Bucket list

Graduate college, get married, get a dog, climb on every roof at Central, skydive, and follow joggers around in my car and blast “Eye of the Tiger” for encouragement.
