Originally from Tampa, Florida, I moved to San Diego with the Navy in 2010. After I got out, I stayed because San Diego is a fantastic place to live for so many reasons. In the Fall of 2012 I started as a full time student at Mesa College and by Fall of 2015 had earned degrees in Anthropology and Geography. I’m transferring to UC Berkeley this Fall but came back for one last semester to study journalism and write for the Mesa Press.
