About Me
I am a sophomore at Duke University, currently in the process of transferring from Trinity into Pratt as a BME major. I hail from Millburn, NJ, and lament the lack of good bagels and Italian food in Durham (although BBQ makes up the difference). I have been a die-hard Duke basketball fan from an early age.
Name Pronunciation
I pronounce my name "Alex Guevara" as AH-lecks Guh-VAR-uh, with the "VAR" portion rhyming with "far" rather than "air." Che Guevara's page might have some more comprehensive info on that.
Interests
I enjoy running (when I'm in shape that is) and playing soccer. I am also into trying new restaurants, especially if dessert is involved.
