Get to Know the Board
Founder: Allie K.
Hi there! If whoever is reading this is a new baker to the club or a new baker in general, I’m so glad you’re here and I want to welcome you to Aggie Baking Club. ABC started as an idea in Spring 2021 when I was a 2nd year student in quarantine. Now, it’s become so much bigger than I could’ve imagined! I’ve since graduated as of June 2023 with an Animal Science B.S. and minor in Global Disease Biology with goals of making an impact in the field of public and animal health someday. As a homebody, I love hanging out with my cat after work and rewatching old TV shows, but when I do head outside I love trying new boba places with my partner and friends.
Though I’m no longer part of ABC, I am still extremely proud of every accomplishment and milestone the club makes. Since I have left, the board has continued to grow a beautiful and strong community of bakers at UC Davis and my hope is that whoever reads this is inspired to join it, whether as a board member or as a one time baking party guest. I promise you will be welcomed with open arms if you just accept the risk and try. Thank you to Saanya Gupta, Nishi Chudasama, Maggie Chen, Raphael Ng, Jasmine Lam, Leah Schloss, Cindy Zhu, and countless others who have been part of the foundation of this blossoming club. My message to the current and future board members of the club is to remember the purpose of baking: to put effort and love into something and be proud when you’ve done your best. Allow yourself what you need first and only then will you get back what you give. All my love, Allie |

I’m very excited to plan fun events with our awesome team and see the tasty creations y’all make :) My favorite things to bake are cookies, sponge cakes, and breads (esp focaccia)! If anyone ever wants some cookies lmk - I always make more than I can finish. Aside from baking, I enjoy horseback riding, hiking, doing lil art projects, playing the piano, and hanging out with my pets. |

Hi! I’m Tiffany, a third year design major and one of ABC’s new designer. I’ll be in charge of creating cute graphics for the fun events we’ll have here <3 I’m more of someone who loves eating desserts than baking haha, but I still enjoy trying out various new recipes :’) Aside from baking, I love listening to music, exploring, gaming, and anything cute! I’m excited to be a part of the cool baking community here and look forward to meeting you all ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡
Social Media Manager: Nicholas H.
- Salutation! My name is Nick and I’m a 4th year genetics major. Like most of my peers, I’m also from the Bay Area from a small town called San Jose. I’m a foodie, so if you need some recommendations I gotchu.
- I’m not sure how I became part of the board, I cannot bake to save my life, so best not to ask me for advice(unless you want something to burn). I will be taking pictures throughout the baking sessions, so I hope you aren’t cameraphobic!
Wellness Coordinator: Joseph
Hello all, my name is Joseph, and I’m going to be the resident wellness coordinator! I’m a third-year nutrition science major. I’ve been baking since I was a kid with my mom, and I especially love making all types of cookies! When I’m not baking, I’m spending most of my time in the ARC playing volleyball and working out or studying in Shields! I also dabble a bit in games, but I especially enjoy listening to all kinds of music, so hopefully I can steal some recommendations from some of you. I’m looking forward to meeting you! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

Social Coordinator: Rance
Yo! My name is Rance and I’m a 4th year pre-med student who is currently suffering through med school applications. I like to think that I’m pretty social and you can usually find me walking around somewhere in downtown Davis. Although I have little experience in baking, I’m more than happy to try out (and mess up) whatever interesting recipes I come across. Besides ABC, I’m also a member of Baile de Fuego where I specialize in Dominican Bachata. Looking forward to meeting ya!
