Committed to leading a life where I never stop learning and undertaking new experiences. B.A. in Communication Studies from California State University, Long Beach. Current barista, but looking to create the first steps in building a career. Hello! My name is Andrew, and I'm passionate about participating in and cultivating collaborative environments and spaces that foster meaningful connection. During my first semester in undergrad, I took a chance on a Communication Studies course. Turns out, I absolutely loved it, and the following semester, I declared it as my major. Through the program, I quickly came to realize how vital community and systems of support are for not only students, but people in general. Believing that you have a community of support comes from the magic of connection, and connection makes the world go round! I hope to have a career that allows me to combine my enthusiasm for connection with my personal passions in video games, pop culture, music, and other media. Thank you for reading!
