I am a sophomore at Cypress College, where I am majoring in journalism. I will be spending my final year there as the Editor-in-Chief of The Cypress Chronicle, overseeing Divergence magazine, CyChron.com, and the Cypress College Media Network and all its webcast programs. After Cypress, I plan to complete my studies at a California university, possibly Chapman or the Dominincan U. of CA. Outside of school, I am, of course, a diehard sports fan. My favorites are baseball and hockey, but I also like basketball and tennis. My other interests include politics, social activism, animal rights, LGBT rights, environmentalism, literature, film, and music.
