Hi, I am Amanda Potter and I am going to be a counselor for the San Diego immersion program. I am 22 years old and I recently graduated from UCSD with a B.A. degree in Communications. I was born and raised in San Diego and I love it there, but I also love to travel! I studied for 6 months in Rome, Italy last year and I was able to explore Portugal, Spain, Greece, Ireland, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic as well. Since I have developed a love for travel and cultural exploration, I hope to teach abroad next year and immerse myself in a whole new culture. I am a sports fanatic; I love to watch every type of sport and I love to swim and play water polo. In my free time I like to read, watch movies, and hang out with my friends. I look forward to meeting you all!
Amanda
Hi Everyone! My name is Chris Hara and I will be helping to coordinate for your San Diego Immersion Program. I am 22 years old and just graduated from UC San Diego where I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology. In addition, I have a minor in Education Studies and plan on obtaining my Master’s degree and teaching credentials in the near future. I was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania and my home away from San Diego is Cupertino, California (northern California near San Jose) where I have two loving parents, a sister, and two cats. In my free time, I enjoy hanging out with my friends, surfing, rock climbing, and playing video games. I cannot wait to hear your interests and stories, explore San Diego, and share American culture with you!Chris
