Sacramento, CaliforniaMy Greatest Supporters
My greatest supporters would be my parents John and Andrea Vine who have constantly supported me through all my endeavors. My partner and friends I have made along the way here at Saint Mary’s. And lastly my professors Dr. Nekesha Williams, Dr. Julie Ford, and Sharon Lee Kim who provided me with the opportunity to grow and learn throughout my time here.
Favorite Saint Mary's Memory
Getting to live with my best friends my Junior year. Alex Vela, Jiana Limtiaco, Shelby Perez, Celine Calvo, and Amalia Duennas, and myself all lived in Syufy 24. Sadly our time together was cut short due to the pandemic but we had the best times living together on campus.
My Next Chapter
As of right now I will be moving back to Sacramento to spend time with my family and prepare for my future. Whether that be school or heading directly into the work force.

East Palo Alto, CAMy Greatest Supporters
I would like to thank my parents, Martha and Cristobal Cabrera, my little brother and my Wita for being my biggest support system, constantly encouraging me to go after my dreams no matter the obstacles. I'd like to thank my Godparents and uncle for their support and last but not least, my dog Khloe for the unconditional love and company she gave me during stressful times.

WALNUT CREEK, CAMy Greatest Supporters
Without a doubt, my parents Cielo and Neil Ricafrente have supported me through every aspect of life and raised me into the man I am today as well as my sister Sam, and my dog Luna. Special shout out to my professors Roy Allen, Dr. Julie Ford, and Sharon Lee Kim for allowing me to grow and develop. Lastly, I would like to thank the Academy as well as sidewalks for keeping me off of the streets.
Favorite Saint Mary's Memory
My favorite Saint Mary's memory would either be when I traveled to South Africa for the World Choir Games in 2018 with the Saint Mary's College choir or when I studied abroad in Japan for Jan Term 2020. In addition, I will always treasure the infamous "water cooler talks" I had with my boys Michael Prebil, Moises Gonzalez, Ryan Ford, and Trent Cox.
My Next Chapter
Currently, I am working as an Agent at New York Life in San Francisco. I will be staying in Walnut Creek to spend time with my family and friends. At the same time, I am looking to further my career in music on the side and release an album in the future.
