"Hello, I am Cristopher! I joined PSP in Fall 2020 after looking for an organization that valued academics and professionalism as much as I did. Joining PSP was a great opportunity to connect with other students during quarantine as it helped strengthen my connection to campus. I have enjoyed my time as a member and being surrounded by amazing individuals with unique stories!

This is a picture that my friend took of me last Halloween. It highlights my love for pizza and my favorite season of American Horror Story which inspired my costume–1984! Additionally, I like writing poetry, learning new languages (currently giving Portuguese a shot!), traveling, and volunteering with organizations for a social cause. My major is International Relations, so feel free to chat with me about current events, or any of the topics mentioned above. Show recommendations on Netflix are always appreciated!"
