When I started working at UC: February 1, 2018
What I do for UC in five words or less: Facilitate Berkeley’s strategic international partnerships.
Why I love working at UC: At UC, I am surrounded by some of the greatest minds in the world. Every interaction is an opportunity to learn something new.
Something people don’t know about me: I raced dirt bikes (motocross) as a kid. I got my first bike at 10 years old and raced for four years.
