Describe your college experience
College is a dynamic experience teaching many lessons, good and bad, inside and outside of the classroom. While the initial transition can be difficult and stressful the payout can be huge with the access to a huge variety of people and places of all backgrounds and interests
Tip for future students
Don’t be afraid to ask for help, there are tons of resources on campus that can make learning classes a lot easier and less stressful. Also don’t be afraid to put yourself out there, meet people and make connections.
Favorite class
My favorite class so far has been Bio20C, evolution and ecology. The class is fascinating and its topics are not only intriguing when thinking about the history of the earth but also reshapes how one might perceive life and its relationship with one another
Career goals
I hope to be a field researcher
Ideal way to spend a free night
I love either recharging at home or going out to events and parties
High school or secondary school
Westmont High School
Favorite spot on campus
Stevenson benches and the Coastal Campus are really calm and quiet places to relax and their views are breathtaking.
Meeting point
Outside of Slug Stop on the University of California, Santa Cruz campus
