About
I am currently attending the University of Texas at San Antonio as a psychology/pre-med student. I plan on going to medical school or graduate school when I am done with my bachelors to become either a psychiatrist or a clinical psychologist. Working with people and helping them reach their full potential is a passion of mine. I currently volunteer at the San Antonio State Hospital to fulfill that need while going to school. I have learned a lot and it has only driven me to accomplish my goal even more.

Goals and interests
- Graduate school interests
I am looking to go to medical school or grad school. Whichever works out I am perfectly content with. For graduate school I would like to attend a university that is not in Texas and I would love to study clinical psychology. Somewhere in Seattle or Boston would be ideal. For medical school I will apply in the same two cities, but also locally mainly so I have a solid foundation with family and friends to help get me through the intensity.
- Outside the classroom
I have a variety of activities I love to do. I love doing crafts and trying to make things myself as opposed to buying them. I run and ride my bike religiously. I find gratification in eating a balanced diet and researching nutritional information. I am a frequent reader and free writer. I like to keep up with current events and form my own opinion. I try to involve myself in my community as much as possible. I believe you should always be giving back any way you can.
