What are your television favorites?
Girls. I love American Horror Story and Lost, even though it’s not on anymore. I also like a gay Web series, The Outs. It’s like the gay version of Girls.
What superhero would you be?
I really don’t like superheroes, so none.
Who’s your greatest influence?
My mom. Growing up, she always taught me how to have a strong work ethic. She’s outspoken. She always told me to be myself, to be opinionated, but still respect other people’s differences.
What’s your greatest fear?
I sometimes fear what will happen if I never meet someone, settle down or get married.
Pick three people, living or dead, who you think would make the most fascinating dinner guests imaginable.
James Franco, Lena Dunham and Courtney Love. I’ve been obsessed with her since middle school. She’d be a really creepy guest to have at dinner.
What would you serve?
Tapas and Champagne. I’m not a good cook.
How would you describe your dream guy?
Someone taller than me. I love dark hair and dark eyes. I like someone who is spontaneous, thoughtful, driven, educated.
Define good in bed.
Someone that I have a spark with, who understands what I want and that I understand what they want.
Who was your first celebrity crush?
Jake Gyllenhaal.
Who gets on your nerves?
I hate when I’m in a restaurant and people are rude to the wait staff. I hate guys that use the term ”straight-acting” to describe themselves.
