I chose Illinois because: I've attended small private schools since kindergarten and by the time I graduated high school I was ready for a big school.

My favorite place on campus and why: The Quad of course! It's a great place to see random (and I mean random) activities.

My best memory as an Illini cheerleader is: When we went to UCA Camp in Milwaukee this past summer. I had a blast!

Favorites:

Favorite Skill to watch or perform? Diamond Heads....They are harder than they look, but the end really looks amazing!
Favorite Athlete? Michael Phelps (despite his recent "scandal")
Favorite Illini Athlete? Juuuuuice!!
Favorite Movie? It's a tie between Redeye and Meangirls (I think it has something to do with Rachael McAdams)
Favorite TV Show? Family Guy
Favorite Activity outside of cheerleading? A student attempting to maintain his grades.

Other Stuff:

Famous people I've met: Does meeting Mickey Mouse, at Magic Kingdom, when I was seven count?
I have been told I look like: Deon Richmond (Bud from the Coby Show and Jordan from Sister Sister)
If I was on a reality show it would be: banned in all of the 50 U.S. states.
What sport would you play if you weren't a cheerleader? I'm a hurdler at heart, so I would run track.
One thing most people don't now about you: I'm a huge pushover who says, "yes" to to anything ... well not anything.

Plans after Illinois: after Illinois? "Man I love college"
