About

I am a highly motivated student especially when it comes to my future career. I graduated as a junior from High school circa 2012. I then attended Laredo Community College and received my Associate’s Degree. I graduated Summa Cum Laude in the class of 2014 at age 18. During my time at Laredo Community College, I was a Supplemental Instructor Aid for History. I gained social interactions skills and remained to keep my classes as first priority. I believe my focus, dedication, and motivation will help me strive to succeed my goals of becoming a Neuroinformatic scientist.

Goals and interests

Career goal

Personally, I have always had affection towards research. I have juggled between majors such as Pre-Med, Biology, and Biomedical Engineering. Each attempt at these different majors did not captivate me as Bioinformatics has. Once I gained an increase awareness and acceptance of the importance of big data and data sharing, I longed to advance in the field. Utilizing traditional bioinformatics as my foundation I can be able to develop databases, standards, tools and models for levels of the nervous system organization. I would be extremely overjoyed to research and work with the human brain with simulation and analytical techniques in order to help patients and the community as my lifelong career.

Outside the classroom

Bioinformatic related news such as Big Data and data sharing. Longboarding. Photography. Music.
