Hello, my name is Josh Inga and I am a first year Earth Science major, with an emphasis in Geology, in the Honors Program at UCSB. I was born and raised in Corona, California and my love for the coast, which played a major factor in my decision to attend UCSB, stems from its grandiloquent beauty, yet unparalleled myriad of biodiversity and recreation all mixed together into one. I am currently an undergraduate research assistant for IOG in the marine lab as well as a chair for IV Surfrider. A fun fact about myself is that I started my own profitable business growing and selling cacti and succulents and my favorite marine gastropod is a sea hare.
