He chose Middle Georgia State College because … “The school is known for its excellent aviation program. The small classrooms sizes and the hands-on experience I have received here at Middle Georgia have been so helpful in my success. The community atmosphere makes Middle Georgia State a very well-rounded and desirable place to live and learn.”
The one thing that surprised him about Middle Georgia State was … “How friendly and family oriented it is.”
His favorite professor is … “Dr. Troy Sullivan. He was my professor for Accounting I & II, and Human Resources. He not only taught us the material out of books, but he also taught me lessons I can use my entire life. If I don’t remember anything from his classes, I will always remember he preached the idea of consistency.”
His favorite place to study is … “The third floor of the library. This is my favorite place to study because it is always quiet. The library is very well run and always a reliable place where I can study.”
One thing people don’t know about his is … “I have been on the Dean’s List multiple times and I have a 3.5 GPA. I have worked very hard and have mastered time management.”
His friends make fun of him because … “I wear Uggs in the winter.”
The one person he’d most like to meet is … “Martin Scorsese. I would like to meet him because of his famous movie making. Some of these movies are ‘Goodfellows,’ ‘Casino,’ and ‘Cape Fear.’ One of the questions I would like to ask him would be, ’Where do you get your creativity and inspiration?’”
Five years from now he sees himself … “Married, working at Delta Airlines and trying to make my way up through the corporate ranks. I would like to be making a difference in the world.”
