Víctor is a current senior majoring in Psychology with a minor in Creative Writing (prose track), with interests in easing the lack of mental health resources that disproportionately affect low-income and POC communities, as well as the intersections at play with mental illness, literature, and society. A fronterizo from the San Diego/Tijuana region, he brings his community to Stanford and his writing. Victor can often be found loitering at CoHo, sipping a Havana latte, indulging in recently thrifted clothing, and reading the latest queer novel. Most notably, he is enthusiastic about supporting student stories in writing and beyond and is eager to celebrate new and established voices in the Creative Writing program (that’s you!)
