Senior, Men’s Soccer, 2015 All-Big West Honorable Mention

I chose UCI for the excellent academics and also the success of the Men’s Soccer program. I knew that I wanted to be a part of that success. 

When I am not playing soccer, I am an avid surfer and having UCI so close to the beach is probably the thing I love about this university the most. I love that I can start and end my days at the beach. I can wake up, go surfing in the morning, then head to training and be with my teammates. After that I head to class and finish off my day, only to return to the beach for the sunset and sometimes another surf session.  

What surprised me about UCI was how eco-friendly our campus is. It makes me proud to be a part of one of the leading schools in this field. Walking around campus is always a pleasure. When we travel to play soccer, I’m proud to wear the “UCI” on my chest knowing I represent such a unique place.
