Meet Our Members
PRESIDENT
Emily Mallard
Manard
Junior 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.

Buliet
First-Year Vocal Performance Major


SOCIAL CHAIR
Ryan Merrigan
Mommy Merigan
Senior Economic Consulting and Finance Major


Ryan is from Davidson, NC and sings bass for TM. When he's not sleeping, he is extremely over caffeinated on coffee. His greatest personality trait is being diabetic with a close second being a Cleveland Browns fan. Besides acapella, Ryan is killing himself with many "overcommitments". Ryan didn't envision himself being a part of acapella when he first got on campus, but now he can't image a world without his family.

Alexa Citrin
Akeka
Junior 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
Sophomore 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!

MUSIC DIRECTOR
Lexi Garcia
Alexia
Junior 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!!!!!!
VICE PRESIDENT
Sebastian Schroeter
Seabass
Senior Sports Management Major


Sebastian was born in New Jersey, raised in Atlanta, Georgia, and lived in Montreal, Canada for 4 years. He’s a pretty big rap fan and favorite artist is Kendrick Lamar, but will listen to most anything. Seb’s favorite food is chicken wings, but is a wimp when it comes to spicy food. Fun fact: he doesn’t actually like sea bass. He loved to play basketball, is pretty good at video games, and can pick up the trumpet again if he’s up for it. As a new member as of Fall 2022, Seabass is excited to be a part of the ™️ family for the next 3 years and cannot wait to perform!
HISTORIAN
Mason Touma
The Toumanator
Senior Biology and Computer Science Major


Mason comes from a land far away called Louisville Kentucky. When he’s not “studying” for a test or singing, he is found napping… and that’s about it. His hobbies include bullying his friends, playing video games he secretly hates, or building a new lego he wasted his money on. Mason is so happy to be singing with this fantastic group of people he considers family!

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…
PERFORMANCE CHAIR
Keller Knight
Killer Keller
Sophomore Music Production and 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

TREASURER
Jocelyn Bogart
JoBo
Sophomore 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!
SOCIAL CHAIR
Payton Snead
PP
Senior Exercise Science Major


Payton was born and raised in Virginia Beach, VA. You can normally find her frantically walking around carrying 7 things in her hands, keys slamming on her emotional support water bottle. Her favorite food is oatmeal, and often paired with a celsius or another form of caffeine. When she’s not singing, she’s either in a coffee shop, at the gym, crying, or overthinking. If you see her around campus, she’s most likely romanticizing her life when she’s just going to get food.

Casey Goldman
Casey
Senior Arts Administration Major


Born in Tennessee and home grown in the Midwest, Casey is so excited to be apart of the bare-footed brotherhood. When she’s not singing, you can find Casey staring longingly out to sea and waving a handkerchief to her lost lover, wrestling her corgi, or in the Cookout drive-through line.
