Words of wisdom to students still at UF and in the undergraduate program
Never be afraid to experiment. You’ll learn what you love through experience.
One thing you wish you had done more of/taken a risk on/engaged with more during your time at UF when you now look back on your time here?
I wish I was more involved in clubs and university groups. I never joined any hispanic or entrepreneurship related clubs.
UF Geography wishes Ian and all our graduating seniors all the best as they embark on their next journey. Congratulations from all our GeoGator family and please be sure to stay in touch! #Geogators, #UFGEOG, #CLASGrads2020
