My Story
As a first-generation university student from South Central Los Angeles, I am proud of my Mexican American heritage and the experiences that have shaped who I am today.
I am passionate about creating and brainstorming new ideas, fueling my love for designing and creativity.
Currently, I am attending UC Berkeley, majoring in Media Studies with a concentration in Digital Studies, where I am embracing new opportunities and continuing to grow personally and academically.
Outside of my academic life, I enjoy hiking, drawing, matcha, and playing soccer!
