Random info about you that other people will find interesting, amusing, or useless...

I have a twin sister (fraternal) who is one minute older. My thumbs are double jointed.
I did cross country, track and swimming all four years of high school. I enjoy bicycling, running and swimming.
I desire to become an urban transportation planner.
My younger brother also goes to UNC Charlotte and twin sister goes to UNC Greensboro.
Born in Charlotte (NC), raised in Kannapolis (NC). I love southern culture, especially sweet tea but despise NASCAR.
Raised christian but recently felt need to discover my own beliefs so currently agnostic. Raised Republican but unaware of what they support so currently undecided. College seems like great time to discover who I am and who I want to be!
Probably am too involved on campus but I enjoy every minute of it!
I traveled abroad with the People to People Student Ambassador Program to England, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, France, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Australia, New Zealand. I have not studied abroad yet but interested in opportunity.
