Though he started his undergraduate studies as a computer engineering major, Andrew Delfino switched to English, where he graduated with highest honors. He also won the University of California, Davis’s Prized Writing Awards twice in consecutive years. While at Davis, he also wrote a popular humor column for the campus newspaper.
