About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn and enjoy as much as I can

ABOUT ME

I am person who likes to be around of friends and family; I enjoy hanging out with friends at my place or theirs, share food and drinks, and just spend time with them. But also I like to have my personal space and time to think and clear my thoughts and goals. I have told by my friends that I am always smiling.
I am neat person, responsible, who values honesty above all.

Interests

My interests are diverse. I like businesses; I have a degree in Marketing, and one day I will own my business. And the industry that interests me is the one related to the environment, sustainability and green businesses. As a I am newly admitted student at McGill University, I will be studying about water resource management, a topic I found critical in our time.

I enjoy the outdoors, as I have been doing the last couple of months, going camping, hiking, travelling around my country. I love biking as a way of transportation, as well as an outdoor activity. At home, I enjoy watching documentaries, news reports, comedies, and movies.
Finally, I follow politics very close; it interests me especially what is happening in South America and the U.S.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been an immigrant, lived, studied and worked in a foreign country. I had to overcome the barriers such as language, cultural differences, and legal-migratory limitations. It was a period that really tested my faith and desires, and made me admire everyone who leaves his or her country to pursue a dream.

And then, I consider that there are so many moments. Biking with friends under a heavy rain in a Friday night, travelling around Europe with a group of 50 international students, having all my friends gather in a BBQ party, being lost in a hike on a rainy and cold day.
