What is your favorite restaurant in Milwaukee?
There are so many to choose from, but my favorite restaurant is Tauro Cocina near Brady Street. It is a Mexican-Italian fusion restaurant. I can get something different on the menu every time and still be amazed. Plus, I always bring my family here when they visit, so it reminds me of them.
What is your favorite memory from your time as a student at Marquette?
I am fortunate enough to have made so many memories at Marquette that it is hard to pick just one. However, my favorite memory has to be watching all of the March Madness basketball games senior year! It was so fun being with my best friends and alumni cheering on our favorite team.
If you could be on a reality tv show, which one would you choose and why?
Definitely The Amazing Race. The show looks fun and fast-paced, and I love traveling. The participants get to see the world and learn more about cultures and local customs in places that aren't always well-known vacation destinations.
