What is your most embarrassing moment?
So, I play the odds game with my roommate Zack Shapiro just about every weekend. We get really creative and it can be embarrassing, but it's all in good fun. One time, I had to say the word "meow" 10 times in the first two minutes of talking to this cute girl I hadn't met before. Another time, I had to tell the Costco staff my ankle hurt and then use the electric buggie cart thing for our entire groceries run.
What is your favorite place to take a girl in Charleston?
As lame as this sounds, it would have to be my house, or my friend Grayson's house, because that's where you can get a chance to meet my friends. My friends in Charleston are the very best people on this earth and we act as a big family, so getting to spend time with them is a true gift every day for me, and it is something I'm proud to share with anyone I care about.
What is your idea of the perfect date?
When I think about my best times at college, they haven't been centered around place, but rather on great memories. A perfect date is one where we can have some genuine laughs, dance without any inhibitions, and just be your authentic self. Isn't laughing, dancing, and loving others kind of what life's all about anyway?
How do you feel about being the Bachelor of the Month?
Honestly, it's really surprising. And humbling. I don't know who could have possibly thought that, but it's definitely nice, so thank you to whoever decided to pick me.
Do you consider yourself to be a ladies man?
Not really. In high school, I was nominated as one of the people for "biggest flirt," and that's when I realized that description might actually be true. I just love talking to people and creating friendships so, if anything, I can be a flirt, but I wouldn't say I'm a ladies man.
What do you look for in a girl?
First of all, I don't really get excited about girls who are into one-night or one-week flings; a deeper connection is much more interesting. In terms of traits, looks are obviously important, but intelligence and being a nice, giving person are key. Oh, and my bubbie really wants me to marry a "nice Jewish girl," but that's not on the top of my priority list.
Who is your celebrity crush?
Easy. Emily Torchiana.
