Hello! My name is Maximiliano (or Max, if it's easier) and I'm a '28 from East Oakland, California. I plan to study Engineering, possibly modified with CS. Outside of my academics, I like playing volleyball, soccer, and swimming. I love the outdoors, so I hope to share some of my adventures on this blog. I enjoy video games, Rubik's cubes, and watching anime. I am excited for my four years at Dartmouth and I hope to share some of my fun experiences with you!
Hello everyone! My name is Maximiliano Beas, and I am a '28 from Oakland, California. I am the son of Mexican immigrants from Jalisco, and I have a younger sister who is a junior in high school.
Fun fact: Flor is my first pet ever!
I am the proud cat dad of my two-year-old cat, Flor. Even though she is named after a flower and is as cute as one, I assure you her demeanor is more like a Venus flytrap.
If you were to ask me the worst part of leaving home, I'd say leaving my family was the hardest… along with leaving behind the amazing food in the Bay Area.
The taco on the left is possibly one of the best tacos I've ever had in my life. I could talk about it for 15 minutes. On the right are my dad's quesabirrias, the best I've ever had.
I love the outdoors, and I am excited to join the Dartmouth Outing Club, the oldest and largest collegiate outing club in the nation! I grew up camping and hiking all over California and even had the chance to camp at Yellowstone National Park.
Yellowstone is my favorite park that I have camped at.
I love sports, and I was on the soccer, volleyball, and swimming teams at my high school. I've been swimming since the age of five and have been a part of the Fremont Gatorsharks, a summer league swim team in East Oakland, since 2013. I hope to join the club swim team at Dartmouth, as well as the club volleyball team.
Senior Year High School Soccer Team!
I'm a computer geek. I saved money for the majority of high school until I had all the components needed to build my own PC. As you may have guessed, I'm also a gamer. The new EAFC25 (FIFA) just came out, and I'm very excited. I spend a LOT of my free time watching gaming and tech videos. Some of my favorite creators are Linus Tech Tips and Marques Brownlee.
Buying and installing this graphics card into my computer was one of my proudest moments.
I am truly blessed to be here at Dartmouth. I hope you enjoy my blog. Think of me as your friend on the inside!
Me and my wonderful friends got together one last time before we all left for college!
After experiencing this Dartmouth winter term, I am ready to write an ode to this cold weather! Here is what a weekend in the Hanover winter feels like.
Join me as we attend a Brovertones concert during Winterim! The Brovertones are just one of Dartmouth's many amazing acapella groups. I saw them perform during their East Coast tour.
