CURRENT MISSION

Travel, meet new people and just enjoy life without any regrets

ABOUT ME

My name is Bernadette and I am currently a 4th year undergraduate student attending UC Berkeley. I was born and raised in the Bay Area (California, USA). I've always loved traveling and love urban environments, which is why I am studying Urban Studies (City Planning). I've always loved architecture and even tried to pursue it as a major, but it seems that design wasn't my route (though I still love to draw).

I am part of a sorority, Sigma Phi Omega (Zeta Chapter). I am also a dance troupe member in a hip hop dance team called TruElement. I am also actively involved in PASAE, a society for scientists, architects & engineers.

PHILOSOPHY

Live without any regrets.
