Interests: Snapple caps, fairy hunting, the outdoors, fruit snacks, traveling, dance parties, history, spending too much time in Val with the XC team and cyclopses. Cyclopses are awesome.

Something random: I like grass (a lot) and I have a snapple cap collection that consists of roughly 500 caps.

Why you chose Amherst: Really, I chose Amherst because of the grass. There is beautiful grass on the quad and in the fields. When I look out of my window, across the quad, I feel the urge to frolick about or skip to class. Oh, plus the academics are awesome, and it's nice to be part of such a close knit community.
