About
I am currently a college student at Miami Dade College, FL. I am completing my associate degree in pre-pharmacy. When I finish college I am going to apply to University of Florida, University of Miami or University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. There I want to continue my university education and get my PhD in pharmacy.
Since I was a child I developed a love for natural science. I grew up around scientific parents who made me part into many of their investigations. These earlier experiences in the medical field had a great impact in my later decision to become a pharmacist research. My biggest ambition is to find better medical treatments for those people who suffer from cancer, HIV and especially those from hearth diseases. My aspirations as a student and human is to get a good education in the medical field and beyond, from this way I would be able to apply my knowledge to every sphere in my life: my family, my workplace, and my community.

- Outside the classroom
I like to spend my free time drawing, it is one of my passions. As I draw I submerge myself into another world, a world where I can express my feelings and my thoughts. I am also a good reader. I like to read about psychology, philosophy and science. My third hobby is the practice of sports. I enjoy a lot to swim and run. The practice of these hobbies make me an active person not only physically, but also mentally.
