BA, Anthropology & History, UC Berkeley
Most unusual job you ever had?
This is not particularly unusual, but my only other job outside of student affairs was working at See's Candies all throughout high school. I could eat all the chocolate I wanted while working since it helped us describe the candies and figure out what customers wanted. To this day, I can still identify most See's Candies chocolates in the mixed boxes.
What advice do you have for L&S students in general?
1. Take care of yourself. Remember to sleep, eat well, exercise, and do fun activities.
2. Enroll in office hours! We have amazing faculty and graduate students, and you have the opportunity to work with the most brilliant minds in all subject areas. Take advantage of this and make those valuable connections.
3. Enroll in a class outside your comfort zone that interests you. One of my more memorable courses was not in my major but was taken as a breadth requirement. The knowledge I gained from that experience still serves me well to this day.
About me:
I am a SoCal native, attended UC Berkeley, and remained in the Bay Area after graduating. In my spare time, I pursue my passion for birding and being out in nature.
