Greetings and salutations! My name is Rafi Djerbal, but most people call me Raf. I am an aspiring Biochemistry major who wants to pursue cancer and Alzheimer's research in the future. I like to destress by talking long walks after long days in class. I am always looking for the best spots to eat around campus. I am happy answering all questions from picking a major, to dorm life, to something as simple as getting to class on time. I am here to help you!

Describe your college experience

Moving in and getting acclimated to college life was fairly difficult for me during the first week. But as I started to make more friends, both around campus and in classes, life got easier and more fun.

Tip for future students

Everyone is as nervous as you, just going up to people and introducing yourself is all you need to make lifelong friends.

Favorite class

Food as Medicine has taught me about the importance of keeping your body clean to revitalize your mind

Career goals

Get my Masters degree and work in medicinal research.

Ideal way to spend a free night

Dinner out on the town with my friends and then watching a movie together afterwards.
