Braedon Wright
Braedon
Junior BioChemistry Major
Braedon is a quiet little boy who doesn’t know where he’s from. When he says “California but also kind of China?” know that he’s more confused than you are about the whole thing and that the answer is also Maryland. When he’s not regretting his choice to be a STEM major, he fancies a good YouTube documentary, board games, quality phone time, perchance even a touch of home cooking if he’s feeling nasty. Braedon’s guilty pleasure is a long solo drive where no one can stop him from talking to himself! Yes: Braedon’s bedroom walls fear having to see this seemingly quiet, neurotypical little boy come home and yap or sing or, god forbid, witness the white boy catch a groove. Because the voices always win, Braedon chose to join the barefooted brethren (cult!) and couldn’t be happier to be surrounded by such a talented and welcoming group of people. He can now be found performing his “cult” rituals at Paulies from Thursday to Saturday, at least until the bells start ringing…

Emily Mallard
Manard
Senior Public Health Major
Born and raised in Wichita, Kansas, Emily is proud to be a part of Tau Mu after her extensive midwest show choir career. When she’s not practicing or performing with Twisted Measure, she can be found napping for too long, dancing, or shopping at Target without buying anything. She hopes to one day be able to drive around campus without Google Maps.

Keller Knight
Killer Keller
Junior Music Production & Recording Arts Major
Keller, the five-foot-seven guy who’s just your type, has trekked barefoot from the villages of Middletown, MD just to join Twisted Measure. When he is not writing little songs or dancing around—he just can’t sit still or shut up!—Keller can be found being startled by loud noises and saving the planet with silly goofy beat. He has been described by friends as a soundboard, granola lesbian, and woodland creature, and by enemies as “still hot and sexy.” - Likes: Henrietta (his plant), mugs, irish people - Fears: gluten, low blood-sugar, decisions - Knows: when that hotline bling

Lexi Garcia
Alexia
Senior Music Production and Marketing Major
Lexi Garcia was born in Chicago but she was quickly whisked away (against her will) to South Barrington (a suburb of Chicago) where she was then raised. When Lexi is not singing (which is rare) or talking about her obsession with a cappella, she is often found crocheting or sewing in her room, while watching New Girl or a random Netflix reality TV show. Lexi is so excited to aca-slay (barefoot of course) for the rest of her time in TM!!!!!!

Jocelyn Bogart
JoBo
Junior Marketing and Vocal Performance Major
Meet Jocelyn: A chronic worrier heralding from the medium-sized town of Apex, North Carolina. When not performing and feeling the stage under her bare toes, you can find her sobbing in practice rooms, driving around her Honda Accord named Beverly in the wee hours of the night, snobbishly ranting about Michael Giacchino’s score for The Batman, causing massive acts of destruction with microwavable mac and cheese cups (don’t ask), or listening to a Dungeons and Dragons podcast she’s amassed over 1,000 hours on. Never give her a lollipop stick. Never. She’s so excited to spend the next four years with some great barefoot buddies!

Alexa Citrin
Akeka
Senior Journalism and Political Science Major
Hailing from the tiny town of Granite Falls, NC Alexa is thrilled to be whisked away making music with the barefooted brotherhood. When not singing, Alexa can be found holding multiple beverages at a time, frantically moving around like a moth at a streetlamp, and struggling to stop talking for longer than 10 seconds. As a self-proclaimed movie buff, she will also spend an incredible amount of time talking about how Cars the best movie of all time. Eventually she hopes to learn how to tell her rights from her lefts and walk without tripping over air.

Maya Spencer
Maya
Junior Music Production and English Literature Major
Maya Spencer is an NC native from Raleigh. When she’s not singing with TM, she enjoys crashing out during practice with her band, Yards Davis, meddling, turning on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack on vinyl just to feel something, and reminiscing about the glory days as she ponders the moon during wee hours of night. Self-proclaimed performance addict and peer-proclaimed AI, Maya pushes the boundaries for just how much a girl can take!
