About

I am a Sophomore at UC Santa Barbara, majoring in Political Science. I am originally from Los Angeles, where I was lucky enough to play baseball at Cleveland High School in Reseda. Honors include being named a City Section All-Star and 1st Team West Valley League. I received the opportunity to play at Dodger Stadium in 2009 and got to be a part of the 2007 City Championship Game. I wrote for DodgerBlueBlog.com and am a diehard LA Dodger fan, UCLA fans and now, a UC Santa Barbara Gaucho fan. My heroes include Vin Scully, John Wooden, Sandy Koufax and Fernando Valenzuela.
