Anne Ilustrisimo, president
Neurobiology & psychology | Third year | Warren college
|
Hello! My name is Conor and I am a fourth-year econ major and history minor from Torrance, CA. When I’m not in Geisel you can find me reading, playing sports, or trying (poorly) to learn how to draw. I’ve been involved with Rotaract since week 0 (!) of my Freshman year. I originally joined looking for a community of fun and friendly people and got exactly what I wanted. In the future I hope to be interesting enough to have a Wikipedia page written about me, possibly by writing a book Fun Fact: I have an unhealthy interest in vexillology |

Hello! My name is Clarissa and my pronouns are she/her. I am a third year Cognitive Science major and Speculative Design minor in Sixth College. I joined Rotaract during my second year after a friend told me how fun the club is. Since joining, I have enjoyed contributing to the community and meeting new people. In my free time, I like to doodle, knit garments, and pet my cute dog, Rocky. I look forward to meeting and collaborating with you all this year!

CASEY LEE, FUNDRAISING DIRECTOR
LINGUISTICS & COGNITIVE SCIENCE | THIRD YEAR | SIXTH COLLEGE
|
Hi all! My name is Casey Lee, and it's my pleasure to be this year's Fundraising Director. To give a little background about me, I’m a junior who is currently majoring in linguistics and cognitive science. I love eating, drawing + painting, watching anime, and listening to music. (Also I’m an INFP and a Libra if you’re into that stuff.)
To give some insight into my path as a member of the Rotaract family, I initially joined Rotaract because of some friends. However, I have grown to love the community and the nature of the student org. I have learned the joy that comes out of serving others regardless of the results. I hope that y’all are able to get something similar out of the student org experience as you join Rotaract. Fun fact: I love to talk with anyone about deep topics late at night. So if y’all are into that, HMU 😀 |

Jerome Balancar, treasurer
General Biology | Fourth YEAR | Muir COLLEGE
Hello, my name is Jerome Balancar. I’m a fourth-year undergraduate majoring in General Biology. Back in Highschool, I was part of a similar community/social-oriented organization called Environmental Club and overall I just enjoyed community service. In my free time, I like to watch anime, game (mainly LoL these days), binge Netflix shows, and exercise (running, biking, hiking, basketball, etc). I also dabble in alternative music and EDM when I’m gaming; feel free to add me in League if you’d like. (IGN: jn321x )
Fun Fact: I’ve watched almost all 900+ episodes of One Piece and my fastest mile time was 4:45.

Dianne Dinh, service director
Social Psychology | Third YEAR | Sixth COLLEGE
Service director here! I joined Rotaract to do service last year, but I ended up finding an amazing community to be a part of. This club is full of inspiring people, and it makes me strive to do better! Service is something I want to do for the rest of my life.
I’m a Sixth college third year studying social psychology, and love personality type theories. The things I love the most are service... and MUSIC. My favorite artists being NF and Slipknot. I like to chill indoors, watching horror movies or playing games. I’m open to most things, so feel free to come talk to me about anything. I’m at your service!

Christian Goodale, membership director
Mathematics | second YEAR | REVELLE COLLEGE
|
Hello my name is Christian Goodale! I’m a second-year, math-econ major from Revelle, and I’ll be one of your Membership Directors for this year. I joined Rotaract at UCSD last year as a way to meet new people and ended up coming back every week to see friends and learn about service opportunities. Outside of classes and Rotaract, I spend time as part of the UCSD Pepband and also enjoy playing games like Minecraft, Terraria, and The Sims.
Fun Fact: I run the Rotacraft Minecraft Realm and the UCSD Memes for Rotarian Teens Facebook page. |
Kevin Forero, MEMBERSHIP DIRECTOR
NanoEnginerring | THIRD YEAR | SIXTH COLLEGE
Hello! My name is Alston and I am a fourth year human biology major at UCSD. What I love most about Rotaract is the bonding experience between members as we travel around San Diego and help out our community. I believe that bonding through service is like no other, so developing these meaningful connections is why I chose to become membership director! I also enjoy team sports such as basketball and volleyball, and I often like to express my artsy side by drawing and animating.
lori Camacho, Media Director
math - computer science | Fourth year| SIXTH COLLEGE
Hiya! I'm Lori, this year's Media Director. Like a lot of us Rotaractors, I was in a high school Interact Club, and I look forward to one day being part of a Rotary Club, but until then, I'm grateful for this Rotaract Club and all the friends I've found in it. Aside from my two favorite CS's (computer science and community service), I love to draw digitally, write creatively, think existentially, eat
food and absorb memes. If you’re interested in anything UCSD Rotaract (or anything I mentioned above tbh), don’t hesitate to reach out (coffee with an officer’s are my fav)!
Fun Fact: I chartered an Interact Club at my highschool back home! :D
