Diego Velazquez

My name is Diego Velazquez. I am a first-year undergraduate student at UCSB, majoring in Earth Science with an emphasis in geology. I go by the pronouns he/him. Community service is something I enjoy being involved in, as you can build connections with people from diverse backgrounds while building a strong community working towards a common goal. I have participated in my hometown's Earth Day community clean-up events, Isla Vista's "Saturday Morning Live," and many more rewarding events. I plan to continue building skills and connections through community service to pursue future job opportunities, such as environmental consulting in the private or public sector, with a focus on water quality and related areas. I enjoy hiking, watching soccer, and cooking.
