Funniest childhood memory:
On picture day when I was two years old, the photographers were trying to get kids to smile by holding up an Elmo doll and asking, "Who is this?" Following my older brother's example, I was determined not to smile. They asked me twice and I calmly replied, "It's Elmo." When they asked me a third time, I simply rolled my eyes and walked away, so my picture was not in the yearbook that year.

QUICK: Chocolate or vanilla?
Vanilla's where it's at.

You're going on a date tonight with the person of your choice, dead or alive, fictional or real. Who do you pick and why?
Santino Fontana. The love is real.

One place in the world that I really want to visit is:
Venice
​
QUICK: Nicki or Bey?
Bey.

The song that you will always be caught dancing ridiculously to while alone in your room:
An original song by a friend of mine called "Hey Girl"

Serious one: what is something you very strongly believe in?
I guess I believe in working hard and giving your all, no matter the situation. Hopefully you're working at something you love, in which case it should be easy, but I think it's just as important to work hard at things you don't enjoy as much but for some reason have to do. It never hurts to be the best you can be. Similarly, I believe that said hard work should pay off (if it doesn't, the people around me should prepare themselves for many long rants).

Finally, what is something that you're very much looking forward to this year, Collegium-related or otherwise?
Mastering those Messiah melismas. It'll happen. One day. Maybe.
