Hi! My name is Armando Garcia!

    I’m a proud two-time graduate of the University of Rhode Island! I earned my B.S. in Human Development & Family Science in 2023 and my M.S. in College Student Personnel in 2025. As a first-generation college student, I understand how exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) the college search can be. URI quickly became my home, and I’m passionate about helping students and families/supports see how it can be theirs too. I look forward to meeting you and answering any questions you may have along the way!

    Favorite place on campus: The Greenhouses, my go to spot to relax.
    Best URI food: Breakfest Burrito from Butterfield Dining Hall
    Favorite thing about URI: My favorite thing about URI is the opportunities it gives students to grow and the welcoming community that makes it feel like home.
    Advice for new students: My advice to new students is to ask lots of questions and get involved early. You never know what opportunities and experiences might come your way!
