FIG Assistant: Cece

Hi! My name is Cece, my pronouns are she/her, and I am the FA for Food and the Garden. I am an Environmental Design Major with a Food Studies Minor and I absolutely love it. I am from Corvallis, just up the highway from UO, so I am an Oregonian at heart. I have also had the opportunity to live and work in Ecuador and Costa Rica for several months and I recently returned from an incredible study abroad program doing field work in southern Chile. I love traveling, hiking and backpacking, gardening, and many forms of arts and crafts. I also enjoy music and dance, and I currently play on the UO ultimate frisbee team. I was in the Food and the Garden FIG during my first year and I loved it so much that I came back as an FA. I’m very happy to answer any questions and I’m excited to meet you all this fall.
