Choice of Interviewer?

Hey this is a little bit of a weird question, but I sent in my supplement for RD and received an interview recommending that I schedule an interview. I opened up the spreadsheet and found that there are a number of alumni interviewers within an hour of my hometown and one in my actual hometown. So now that I have choices, what kind of interviewer should I pick? Is it better to have someone who graduate recently (within the last five years) or decades ago? A male or female (I’m a girl)? Someone who graduated from Arts and Sciences (where I applied) or Engineering? Does it even matter? I’m really social and normally excel in interviews so I’m not worried per se, just wondering if it makes any difference?

thaaaanks.
