Davis is known for being a biking campus, why do you choose to skateboard?
I choose to skate board for many reasons! First of all, I live really close to campus and Davis is really flat so it makes for an easy ride! Also, it depends on the season, because if it is raining, I obviously can’t ride! Also, if I have a lot of classes, I will ride my skateboard to make sure I am not late to any of my classes. Finally, if I feel I have too much going on, I choose to walk instead of ride to take some time for myself.
Since you are from SoCal, What was it like adjusting to the weather up here?
I actually love the weather up here, especially when it is cooler, because that is what it was like in Brazil!
