At first, he's portrayed as an uptight RA who takes his job too seriously and considers Drew and their friends an annoying bunch because of their disregard for the rules. As time goes on, however, he becomes obsessed with proving that Aneesa and Drew are sleeping together (which is against the rules, since Drew is Aneesa's RA), especially after nearly catching them in Chapter 12. He goes into fully-fledged KnightTemplar territory in Chapter 16 when he [[spoiler: steals Aneesa's phone, manipulates Drew into throwing a party and getting Aneesa to come, just so he can "conveniently" catch them in the act and get them in trouble]].
