About Me
Hello there! My name is Jake Nordstrom. For my first year of college, I attended Texas Christian University in Fort Worth Texas where I studied Economics. After my first year, when the pandemic occurred, I chose to continue my education at Santa Barbara City College and explore Sociology, which has proved to be an area that captures my interest. Upon receiving my Associates Degree, I moved to San Diego to complete my Undergraduate Education.
In June of 2024, I received my Bachelors from the University of California San Diego. I pursued a degree in Sociology with a focus in Economy and Society. Additionally, I received a minor in Business Economics with plans to pursue a Master’s in Business Administration.
One of my greatest accomplishments outside of the scholastic realm is achieving the rank of Eagle Scout on April 25th of 2019. Before obtaining this final rank, one must plan, fundraise, and execute an Eagle Scout Project that both benefits and gives back to the community. I am extremely proud to reflect on my “Good Turn Cuba Eagle Scout Project”, where I learned valuable life lessons, was able to make important connections, and made new friends across the globe through the art of Baseball. Although my original idea to bring a youth baseball team from Cuba to the United States proved to be impossible with the travel regulations at the time, it didn’t stop me from creating life changing connections and transforming our Freshman Baseball Field into a beautiful Home Field.
