Hi! My name is Derek Diaz-Pavon, I’m a student here at UNE originally from Miami, Florida. I come from a family of 7 having 2 siblings and 2 dogs. I’m of Latin descent with my dad being Cuban and my mom being Nicaraguan. Some things to know about me are that I’m a basketball player here at UNE and started playing competitive basketball when I was 14 years old. When I’m not on the court, you’ll typically find me listening to music by myself or in the weight room lifting weights. After college, I aspire to be a professional basketball player overseas and after my basketball career, become a physical therapist for Pro athletes from all around the world. I hope you guys got to learn a little more about me and if you ever see me around campus feel free to say what’s up!
