About

I am currently enrolled as a full-time student at the University of Houston. I am very proud to attend this institution. My immediate goal is to maintain my grades and earn lasting knowledge I can apply for my future. I eventually plan to work in evolutionary biological research after I attend graduate school.

Career goal

Graduate school interests

I will definitely attend graduate school after I complete my undergraduate degree. I am considering graduate schools in Texas.

Outside the classroom

I am very creative and enjoy playing violin and piano alone and in groups. I am fluent in Spanish, and teach English to non-English speakers quite often.

At the University of Houston, I earned a certificate in entrepreneurship, which has helped me see how innovation shapes businesses. I am also in the process of earning a "TESOL" certificate.

I am a member of Sabor Latino Dance Society, a student-run organization at the University of Houston dedicated to Latin American dancing. I am also a member of the Moore's School of Music Orchestra at the University of Houston.
