If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? I honestly would love to have witnessed the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. That era will forever be defined by fearless leaders across age, gender, race, and socioeconomic lines, who were led by their convictions, and a commitment to change. On that note, I do take pride in being a member of a generation, that is actively recalling the spirit of that movement and channeling it into collective action for common good to (truly) carry our Nation forward. What is your favorite appetizer and dessert? Appetizer: Guacamole (it has to be freshly prepared tableside, though, nothing prepackaged)! Dessert: Lemon Bars from Baker’s Crust (yum)! If you could be any fictional character, who would you choose? Atticus Finch from To Kill a Mockingbird. I consider this one of my favorite literary works of all time, because of the narrative voice employed by the author, and of course, the themes she tackled head-on. To that end, Atticus Finch illustrated for me, what it means to be a man of integrity and valor, despite his environment, social status, privilege, and the prevailing views of the day. If you could have any pet, real or imaginary, what would it be? Hands down, I would have Boo, the World’s Cutest Dog. Once you Google a picture, you’ll want a Boo, too (see what I did there). Tell us something funny or interesting about you. I think something that people find interesting, is my wealth of music-related knowledge. I can tell you everything from album release dates and samples to lyrics, a majority of the time. I am also pretty good at working a song reference into any conversation. Come find me on campus to test out any, or all of the above. What is your dream car? One that looks great, has Bluetooth connectivity, low mileage, and is paid off when I receive it. No seriously, I am in love with the Acura RDX. One day… If you could witness any event past, present or future, what would it be? Festival of Praise Tour at the TED, October 21. What is your favorite appetizer and dessert? Chocolate Cake If you could be any fictional character, who would you choose? The Hulk If you could have any pet, real or imaginary, what would it be? A greyhound dog Tell us something funny or interesting about you. I try to make at least one person’s day a little better each day. What is your dream car? BMW John Mullen Student Health Services 9
