"I am a second-year undergraduate majoring in Economics.  During the 2018 fall semester, I enrolled in the City Planning 13B: Community and Economic Development course because I was interested in the subject matter, which integrated several areas, such as public policy. After exploring different topics, our discussion on ways that private companies can contribute to low-income communities captured my interest in the growing role of businesses and their relationship with the communities in need. Inspired by my learning experience, I am pursuing a Global Urban Humanities Certificate."

Daniel Olea

English
Global Urban Humanities Initiative courses taken:

As a first-generation Latino transfer student, Daniel Olea has demonstrated his tenacious nature by recently earning his Bachelors in English, completing a minor in Education, and receiving the Global Urban Humanities certificate, all while pursuing a career in music as a DJ. With creativity at his core, the self-proclaimed multipotentialite, asserts that "while English ranges from the feasible to the more abstract, harnessing the ability to read and write allows us the opportunity to adapt and grow." In this process, he has recognized the many interdisciplinary aspects of his field and for that reason wishes to not be bound to a single discipline; hence, why he continuously explores everything and anything related to the world.
