While at Oxford College, I helped found the Irish Culture Club. When most people initially heard about the idea, it was assumed that the club was just a cover for underage drinking on campus. As of 2025, the club is still going strong as a vital part of the Oxford College campus social life and maintains a proud track record of zero behavioral incidents (at least to my knowledge).

During my freshman year, I had the opportunity to study ancient geology on the remote San Salvador Island in The Bahamas, which was supposedly the first island Christopher Columbus' voyage encountered while searching for the New World. While I never ended up pursuing geology, I was able to create a lifelong friendship with this rock iguana with whom I shared my sandwich.

While Atlanta Campus has a Dooley that wears a flashy blue and yellow cape, students like myself who attended Oxford know that the original campus' Dooley prefers an older and more decrepit look. While I certainly respect the Atlanta Campus Dooley, this picture shows how I only kneel to the one, true Lord of Misrule, who I encountered at the Fox Theater in 2022 as a part of Oxford's annual Fall Formal.
