Meet Javier
(he/him/his)
Javier is a fifth-year Business Marketing Major who will be graduating this Fall. He enjoys finding new spots to eat and places to just grub out. He recently found a taco spot in San Jose called Tacos Chencho which is his new favorite spot. Something he enjoys about the DISC is that the space invites all, it’s a space to be productive and study, or it can be a space to relax and take a nap when classes get too stressful.
