Name: Ariya Beitollahi
Major/Minor: Physiology/Neuroscience
Year: Junior
Where is your hometown? Mission Viejo, CA.
What are some hobbies/extracurricular activities of yours? Listening to music, taking long drives on Pacific Coast Highway, adventuring, and traveling.
Relationship status? Single…
What is your favorite animal? I have many – but if I were to choose one – it would probably be the cheetah, because I feel like I relate most to it.
What is your favorite memory as a kid? I have plenty, but one that comes to mind is from when I was about six years old. My dad took me on a day long pop-and-son tour around San Diego. We went to Old Town and I remember making a candle in the shape of a teddy bear. It ended up being brownish blue. It was awesome.
If you had to choose between living in an area that is always cold or living in an area that is always warm, which would you choose? Always warm. Adventuring is better when it’s warm outside, and I’m not trying to be outside when it’s cold (hands under my armpits and cold nose, no thanks). Minimal is better, and that counts doubly for the amount of clothes or layers I have to wear.
Do you have any big plans for spring break? Beach, beach, beach, and beach. And PCH. And food. Plenty of food.
