Meet the Actives!
#282 Tim Cole-French | Bass
Tim is a senior in the School of Foreign Service studying STIA with a history minor. This palin-chime is from Dorchester, Massachusetts and when he’s not on stage with the Chimes, he’s out thrifting for the drippiest Amtrak-related clothes. Although Tim enjoys reaching ever higher while rock climbing, his voice is deep as a cavern. We’re always down to hop aboard the Tim Train! Choo choo!
Chimes Superlative: Most likely to forget dinosaurs exist
#283 Aidan Metz | Baritone | Artistic Director
Aidan is a senior pursuing an Accounting and Management double major with a German minor in the McDonough School of Business. Hailing from Garden City, New York, Aidan is a force to be reckoned with, balancing the world of debits and credits with the melodious realms of music. When he's not crunching numbers, you can catch him belting tunes with the Georgetown University Chamber Singers or soaking up the latest campus drama as an RA in New South. Whether he's harmonizing in the choir or offering sage advice on life and ledger books, Aidan does it all with unmatched flair.
Chimes Superlative: Most likely to correct your singing technique
#284 Arjun Singh | Tenor | Ephus
Arjun is a senior majoring in Finance and Accounting in the McDonough School of Business. Straight out of Farmington, Connecticut, Arjun's knack for numbers is only matched by his vocal prowess. When he's not hitting high notes with the Chimes, you'll find him deep in discussion about the latest in the markets with Zeeba Investment Group and Georgetown Student Capital Partners. Arjun seamlessly blends his financial finesse with his musical talents, making him a standout in both boardrooms and on stage. He's the perfect mix of an analytical brain and an artistic soul, proving that you can indeed have the best of both worlds.
Chimes Superlative: Most likely to wear a suit to a casual event
#287 Zach John | Baritone
Zach is a senior studying STIA in the School of Foreign Service. Joining us from Palm Beach, Florida, Zach combines a multitude of academic and extracurricular interests to keep his days full. Whether he’s interning with NASA, completing his pre-med requirements, or leading a Bible study with his friends, you can be sure that Zach is always keeping busy. When he’s not out and about, however, Zach can be found asleep on his living room couch or sharing in the company of his friends. Zach’s upbeat demeanor and overflowing personality fills all of our hearts with joy!
Chimes Superlative: Most likely to say "I'll pray for you" and then actually do it
#288 Colin Wechsler | Lead
Colin is a senior studying Government in the College of Arts & Sciences. Originally from Glastonbury, Connecticut, Colin brings his passion for politics, theatre, and football to everything he does. When he’s not singing with the Chimes, you can find him on stage with the Mask & Bauble Society or passionately cheering on the New England Patriots. Whether he’s deep in a script, debating the latest game, or just enjoying time with friends, Colin’s energy and charisma light up every room he enters.
Chimes Superlative: Most likely to sneak a 2L Diet Coke into a Broadway show
#289 Rishi Bharadwaj | Baritone
Rishi is a junior studying Mathematics and Economics in the College of Arts and Sciences. Coming to us all the way from Chennai, India, Rishi brings his smooth baritone voice and sharper wit to every rehearsal. When he's not singing with the Chimes, Rishi splits his time between keeping New South's freshmen alive as an RA, streaming a variety of games on Twitch, and working with (no) Pressure Creatives as a songwriter to bring original AAPI musicals to Gaston Hall. A lover of music, philosophy, and humor; what's there not to love about Rishi Bharadwaj?!
Chimes Superlative: Most likely to forget practice to watch One Piece
#290 Jonathan Huang | Bass | Treasurer
Jonathan is a junior in the School of Foreign Service studying International Political Economy. Jumping in from West Windsor, New Jersey, he brings big brains and a bass voice to boot. Jonathan serves on the SFS Academic Council, performed in the main cast of (no) Pressure Creatives, and is studying abroad in Taiwan this fall. When he’s not singing with the Chimes, you can catch him zipping around D.C. on Capital Bikeshare, quoting movies, or orchestrating legendary board-game nights. When rehearsal starts, he lays down a bass line so warm it feels like you’ve just been hugged by a cup of cocoa.
Chimes Superlative: Most Wholesome
#291 Alex Luque | Lead | Social Chair
Alex, or “Luque,” as he is affectionately called by the Chimes, transferred to Georgetown as a junior from Clemson University, and is now a senior in the College of Arts and Sciences majoring in Economics. Alex calls Boston, Massachusetts home, but now lives in Beaufort, SC. Always the life of the party, Luque is always down to socialize and connect with those around him at events and mixers. When he’s not at the Chimes House dominating a pong match, he can be found watching college football, going on late-night Lime bike rides with his friends, or at an event for the Business Law Society. Alex cares deeply for his friends and the Chimes—though it can be hard to tell when he is wiping the floor with you in a game of Coup or pong.

#292 Youngsung Sim | Baritone | Business Manager
Youngsung is a junior in the School of Foreign Service majoring in International Politics and double-minoring in Government and Law, Justice & Society. Hailing from Hopewell Junction, New York, and Seoul, South Korea, Youngsung's musical prowess is only surpassed by his passion for proactively serving his peers. Outside of the Chimes, you can find Youngsung hanging with Campus Outreach, helping at the career center, legislating in the GUSA Senate, or debating in the Philonomosian Society. Whether peer mentoring for the SFS, or paneling at GAAP weekend, Youngsung is always down to help people (at least when he’s not dominating in cards and board games, that is).
