Diego C. Email & Phone Number

Passionate about learning and experiencing new cultures, I'm Diego Carrillo, a Cognitive Science major at University California, Los Angeles. A non-conformist, I thrive on forging my path, driven by a thirst for knowledge.From community service as a medical intern to navigating social mobility as an immigrant's son, I've excelled in diverse endeavors. Through these experiences, I've honed my communication skills, developed resilience, and cultivated empathy.Driven by a desire to make a tangible difference, I aspire to become a renowned physician. My goal is not only to provide medical care but also to advocate for equitable access to healthcare and contribute to innovative solutions addressing global health challenges.Beyond academics, I'm dedicated to gaining a global perspective through travel. Exploring new cultures and immersing myself in different environments has broadened my understanding of the world and deepened my appreciation for diversity.In my free time, I'm either composing music and writing songs, training for my next running event, or booking my next global experience (travel). These hobbies fuel my creativity and keep me physically active, providing balance to my academic pursuits.As a fervent advocate against global poverty, I support initiatives that prioritize sustainable development and empower marginalized communities. I believe in the power of collective action to create positive change and actively seek opportunities to contribute to meaningful causes.I'm always eager to connect with like-minded individuals who share my passion for learning, social justice, and making a difference in the world. Let's connect and collaborate on projects that inspire positive change and foster continuous growth together.
