“Sometimes I’ll start a sentence and I don’t even know where it’s going. I just hope I find it along the way.” –Michael Scott

Hey guys! My name is Marvel and i’m a senior here at EC. My favorite things to do are hang out with friends, sleep, and play volleyball. I started volleyball in middle school and just fell in love with it. I’ve been playing on varsity, here at EC, since my freshman year. Since then i’ve also joined many amazing clubs such as best buddies, poly club, and NHS. Time really does fly by in high school and so i’ve decided to join PALS for my last year at EC to make it even more fun and memorable. If ever anything comes up don’t be afraid to talk to me anyone apart of PALS, we are here for you

“Life has no limitations, except the ones you make for yourself.”

Hiiii! So this is a little about me. I was born and raised in Oceanside with my 3 older brothers. I have a love for soccer and have been playing for years. I play for the school along with being in the dance program at ec. My favorite hobby is sitting home and eating chips but also laying down with my fat cat. At first I can be shy but after you get to know me I'm literally so weird and spontaneous. My favorite place to be is at a roller coaster theme park at night with the ppl I love.
