Mariann Guzman: Co-Chair GBM
Email: mariann@ucsb.edu
Mariann Guzman-Espinoza is a second year pre-biology student who is currently the co-chair for SACNAS from San Francisco, CA. Mariann joined SACNAS, fall quarter of her freshman year because she loved their purpose of wanting to promote Latinos, Native Americans, and others from disadvantaged backgrounds to pursue higher education through a supportive and tight knit community. She is currently working as a undergraduate lab assistant in Craig Montell's Lab studying the genes that characterize the Drosophila flies fatty acid taste. She enjoys going on hikes, reading, and listening to KPOP.

Emily Lopez: Vice President
Email: emily_e_lopez@ucsb.edu
Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/emily-e-lopez
Emily is a second year mathematics major in the College of Creative Studies from Santa Clarita, California. Emily loves math; she is full of math puns, named her dog Fibonacci after the twelfth-century mathematician, and wears nerdy math t-shirts. Besides her keen interest in her studies, she strives to diversify STEM and enjoys showing these possibilities to high school students. Her interest in research began when she participated in SIMS 2018, studying the material key to magnetic levitation trains, yttrium barium copper oxide, and its superconducting properties under the coolant liquid nitrogen, with hopes to make magnetic levitation trains ubiquitous means of transportations. She was a 2019 EUREKA Scholar and pursued applied mathematics by studying opinion dynamics using the affine Boomerang model while in Professor Francesco Bullo’s lab within the Center for Control, Dynamical Systems and Computation. When she is not studying for classes or conducting research, she enjoys lagoon walks, losing at intense board game nights, painting, and of course, binge watching Netflix.
