Coco Morales was born and raised in Arequipa, Peru. After returning home from a mission in the Peruvian highland, he decided to continue his education at BYU. He earned his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and a Master of Public Administration here at the Y. He learned Portuguese as part of his minor in Latin American Studies and had the chance to go on a study abroad to Portugal. One of the perks of speaking Portuguese was the chance to meet his wife from Brazil. He discovered his love for higher education while doing an internship in Washington D.C. during his undergrad and hopes to continue serving students for the rest of his life.
For Coco, there is nothing like a good book. He loves reading history and fiction during his commute to work or during lunch. In the same way, he truly enjoys playing video games to destress whenever he has a spare hour. He has rooted for the same soccer team, Juventus, for the past 20 years and loves to play and watch basketball. He looks forward to the day when he will introduce his little son to the Lord of the Rings and Batman trilogies along with the Star Wars universe.
