Make way sidizens… for Sophia Nance!!! She might be shorter than average, but don’t let stature deceive you. You can find this civil engineering major tasting concrete in her spare time (mostly joking), or you may find her at 2 AM making herself some ramen in Sid kitchen, like a true model sidizen. As a sophomore coming from El Paso, Texas, she is also great at hiking, which unfortunately does not really come in handy in Houston. If you’re interested in watching sitcoms or listening to Elton John, this is your person. She’s also known to go on long tangents about the environment or her other passions. If this is the case, you can always distract her with some good chocolate. In short (pun intended), Sophia is always there for a good time, and a great person to get to know.

Are you ready to meet the biggest SZA enthusiast? Look no further, because from head to toe, even down to her beloved SZA crocs, Timauri-Lee Carby is your girl! Whether you’re at your grandma’s funeral, on a spring break road trip, or just got destroyed by your midterm; Timauri has a playlist for EVERY occasion. Representing the beautiful country of Jamaica, Timauri is an island gyal through and through. Not only does she take pride in her country, but she also prides herself in her blackness by advocating for equality. Although she isn’t a makeup guru (just yet), her passion for makeup WILL make her the next NikkieTutorials. Being from McMurtry, Timuari goes BANANAS over bad reality TV shows (like Extreme Cheapskates???). Majoring in Chemical Engineering, Timauri is an ORGO academic weapon and loves making positive impacts on the environment. This love extends to her personal relationships as well. You can count on Timauri for a shoulder to cry on, a bombastic side eye, or real advice (she’s defo the mom of the group). Anyone would be lucky to have Timauri as an advisor (plus she’ll always make your favorite Chaus order with love <3).

What’s that noise?? Chances are that’s Bryant Polanco coming your way with his new song obsession, ready to get YOU obsessed with it too. This sassy Dominican junior from Boca Raton, Florida will make sure you have the best o-week ever! Officially, he’s a Neuroscience and Health Sciences major, but everyone knows he majors in memes and jokes. He l-i-t-e-r-a-l-ly has a meme for every occasion, just try him! Whenever he’s not managing Sid’s money, working REMS, making AWESOME designs, or grinding Orgo, you can find Bryant ordering his weekly chick-fil-a or satisfying his ShareTea Cocoa Creama addiction. Be ready to laugh until you cry, learn about new artists, and slay every day with the best O-week advisor at Sid!

If you ever walk by and see someone meticulously scrutinizing over his red road bike or taking amazing photos, you’ve come across Kevin! As a double major in Biosciences and VADA (photography), Kevin is a senior with wide interests. You will find it easy to connect with him, whether it’s about guitar, music (he's a big metalhead), calisthenics, restaurants in Houston, or his hometown of Chicago (although he really spent most of his life in the suburb of Naperville, Illinois). You can also catch him trying to teach himself how to play the drums and admiring the cute dogs on campus. But most importantly, Kevin is a patient, caring soul who will be by your side through thick and thin and you are incredibly lucky to have him as your advisor!
