5 THINGS

YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT ME

I grew up in Fort Myers and always liked it here. Despite the yearly snowbird traffic and occasional hurricanes, I was ready to move back after college to be closer to family and my community.

I am a die-hard FSU football fan. Almost a prerequisite in the Shearman household, I attended FSU for undergrad and law school, and fell in love with the atmosphere.

The most adventurous thing I’ve ever eaten? During vacation in Mexico, my tour guide stopped at a termite mound, let a few crawl on his hand and then ate them. We tried them, too – they tasted minty. 2/5 stars, would not recommend.

I like playing golf because even a bad day on the course beats a good day in the office. Golf is challenging (see my 20+ handicap), but rewarding to see practice pay off and a fun way to spend time with friends and family.

My advice to students? There is always more that can be done when it comes to studying. It is important to be content with a good day’s effort and then take some time to focus on other aspects of life.
