Q: What was your favorite thing to do as a kid?
A: I grew up loving baseball and there was nothing that I loved more than pretending I was a Major League Baseball player. I would play wiffle ball in the street with my best friend, doing impressions of different baseball players' stances and swings. We would then go inside and play more baseball video games as we organized our folders of baseball cards!!
Q: What song always gets you in the zone?
A: "System" by Odd Mob is a song that always get's me moving and zoned in! I love how the bass hits instantly, and the second drop is good every time.
Q: What is the biggest risk you’ve taken?
A: My biggest risk was betting on myself with the club I started in college, called Gauchos in Business. The time, energy, and money that I poured into the club were very risky, as we had no idea if there would be any financial return -- and I had to count on the people I centered around myself. It ended up being extremely rewarding and GiB grew to be the center of business and professional development at UC Santa Barbara!
Q: How have you shown up for yourself lately?
A: Absolutely! Lately, I've been prioritizing my physical and mental health by going to the gym EARLY in the morning and giving myself enough time to journal & hang out with friends/family at the end of the day. I recently ran my 2nd marathon and plan to run more in the future, doing one late this year on the east coast!
