About Me

I was raised between the United States and Colombia. I studied 4 years of medicine in Colombia while working as an English teacher and managing my yoga brand. I re-majored in Neuroscience and Behavior at FAU and have a Master’s in Health Science with a concentration in informatics from UTRGV. Currently, I work as a grant writer for the local government. On my spare time, I am working towards a second master’s degree in counseling psychology.
