What is your favorite place to eat in Durham? It’s new, the Tobacco Road Sports Café. It’s connected to the Durham Bulls Athletic Park.


What’s the best place to eat on campus? My favorite place to eat on campus is Alpine Bagels on the main quad. They have very good breakfast sandwiches.


What has been the hardest class you’ve had at Duke? Econ 51. I took it my freshman fall in season. It was very dif- ficult.


Who has been your favorite professor at Duke? My favorite professor I’ve had so far was Mark Rosenthal for Abnormal Psychology. It was very intense, but funny.


What was the last book you read that wasn’t for a class? I recently read Greg Dale’s book called It’s a Mental Thing. It was very good. It taught me a lot about how to keep my composure during games.


What was your favorite cartoon as a kid? I loved Rugrats. Classic.


Where are your favorite places to shop? I really like Nordstrom and J. Crew. Basically anything at South Point.


When you’re hungry, the first thing you reach for is… Chocolate pudding, a snack pack.


What’s your favorite sport to watch on TV? I’m learning how to watch soccer. I’m learning more and more so it’s getting more and more exciting, but my first choice would be volleyball.


If not for volleyball, what sport would you be playing right now? Diving. I dove in high school, so that’d be it. One-meter spring- board.


What are your plans for after graduation? I’m attempting to play volleyball in Europe a little bit after I gradu- ate. Then come back and go to graduate school, maybe get my master’s in Accounting or Sports Management.
