Why did you choose Morningside?

It was close to home, the academics sound really amazing here with job oppritunities, and I loved how the swim team was set up. Also, I can play esports.

If you could have two dinner guests from throughout history, who would they be? Why?

Nikola Tesla and Jesus. I'd like to talk with Nikola Tesla to ask about his ideals and to find out how he got through all the obstacles in his life. With Jesus, I'd like to ask him about his life that wasn't in the bible and to ask if everything in the world is going according to how he planned. I'd also like thank him for his ultimate sacrifice.
