A little known fact about McCollum is that he does not like to be on his phone; he would rather just talk to those around him.

According to McCollum, the best part of his day is going home to relax after a long day. When’s he’s not at school, he is usually doing homework or studying. Three things he said he cannot live without are his family, friends, and food.
