Evan is a third-year student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Cognitive Science (specializing in Machine Learning and Neural Computation). After being surrounded by a homogenous group of people from similar backgrounds growing up in the San Gabriel Valley, Evan has a liking for the comfort and community that such a group of people can bring into his life. Conversely, however, he’s come to appreciate the diversity and new perspectives he’s experienced after attending UC San Diego, and even more so after joining Alpha Kappa Psi and getting to know the brothers with all their different backgrounds and unique interests. Professionally, Evan is looking for an outlet for his personal and professional skills.

 

Recently, he’s found a new enthusiasm for the ever-expanding world of digital technology from a professional and intellectual standpoint. His multiple internships over the past summers with Epson, a computer technology company, have helped him learn about both the technical and business sides of a tech company, as well as the ins and outs of navigating, functioning, and moving up in a large-scale company. He looks forward to expanding his horizons and broadening his skill set in the near future and hopes to land a role in which he can use his skills to intersect tech and business.

 

In his free time, Evan enjoys discovering new spots in San Diego, playing, watching, and betting on sports with his brothers, braving challenging hikes with rewarding views, and is extremely passionate about music — whether that be playing it, listening to it, or making it. He has an abundance of experience in playing classical cello as well as piano and has dabbled in guitar through pop song singalongs. Evan is also a DJ and a beginner producer and has hosted and spun for large events and venues for students and organizations on campus, as well as small nightclubs. A self-proclaimed connoisseur of a plethora of genres, he’s fond of both hip-hop and classical music, enjoying particularly the symphonies and cello concertos of the late Romantic Era. Additionally, Evan is an avid basketball player, and after moving to San Diego, he’s also gained a newfound affinity for surfing and volleyball, things that exemplify his love for constantly exploring and trying new things. Evan has grown to love and appreciate the unwavering brotherhood and constant support within Alpha Kappa Psi, and he can’t wait to create more lifelong bonds and everlasting memories with his brothers.
