    Helloooo! I'm Andrew and I am a 4th-year student majoring in Political Science and minoring in History. Beyond SOAR, I love going on road trips and visiting new places when I get the chance, especially during the Winter and Summer. This year, I am excited to be one of your Affiliate Co-Chairs and I aim to continue to expand my passions for empowering students and connecting with our UCI community.

    Hey everyone, I'm excited to meet you all this year! In my free time, I like catching up on tv shows, playing video games, or trying out new recipes. I also like exploring new places that are interesting or I've never been before. And don't feel afraid to reach out to me about anything, I'm always open to chatting as well.
