What are your hobbies, and how are you involved on campus?
Some of the hobbies that I love to do are read and hang out with friends! I'm involved heavily with the Amigos Latinos Student Assocation.

Describe your personality.
I'm a very open and happy person who loves to communicate with new people and make friends!

What are you passionate about?
I'm passionate about spreading awareness to the lack of representation for Latinx in healthcare and how undervalued the community is! I want to be the change I want to see in the healthcare.

What are you looking forward to most in mentoring new students?
I want to make sure these students get the help they need to succeed and accomplish their goals! College is a scary idea especially when your first generation, but having a buddy who knows how to navigate helps a lot in feeling confident in your choices!
