About Me!

Hello everybody, my name is Alex Enfield and I come from a smaller town within Orange County, called La Mirada. I have a close relationship with my family and my friends who I have grown up with. I spent most of high school playing soccer, dancing, volunteering, hiking, and other random adventures.  I have always known that I wanted to go to a college far away from home and I was always set on going to the east coast. After visiting UCSB though, I feel in love with the school and really began to appreciate the beauty of living in California. I also liked how spirited and active of a school UCSB was, which seemed very suiting for me. I spent the majority of my summer in FSSP, taking 9 units as a way to get ahead and to enjoy living on my own early. I am currently a freshman here at UCSB and I am looking for ways to get as involved on campus as possible. I have just recently joined the sorority, Alpha Delta Pi, and I will also be trying out for the rowing team soon. I intend to spend my free time playing soccer and joining cycling classes offered at the recreation center.  I have recently applied to volunteer at the Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara, and I am hoping I will be assigned to help within the E.R. unit or the neurological unit. I hope to major in biopsychology within four years and to then apply for the Peace Corps. I would like to go to Thailand or Africa and to provide healthcare services to as many people as possible.  After I get back from the Peace Corps, I will apply to medical school, where I will then be able to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a psychiatrist for active members of the military and/or veterans.
