As a queer Filipinx American and first-generation college graduate, Jaime’s spark for equity in higher education came from their involvement in outreach and access efforts with the UC San Diego Office of Admissions, the Early Academic Outreach Program, and the Student Promoted Access Center for Education and Service (SPACES). Jaime earned their BA in Communication from UC San Diego where they went on to become a staff-alum with various roles in student services, student engagement, and student organization advising at the School of Biological Sciences.

Jaime is also a two-time Lambda Literary Fellow in playwriting and screenwriting and earned a certificate in Writing for Television from the Professional Program at the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television. Jaime is currently pursuing their Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Creative Writing with a concentration in Dramatic Writing at Antioch University.

He loves to chat about TV, film, and theater and will probably be interested to know about the stories and content that you are currently invested in.
