Albuquerque

Summary

I come from a Latino household, where cultural expectations have shaped many aspects of my upbringing. While these expectations brought both challenges and growth, they played a significant role in shaping who I am today. I’m a highly ambitious individual with a clear goal in mind: to pursue a new form of education in the beauty industry.

I am currently in the application process for the Paul Mitchell School of Beauty, where I plan to enroll in the cosmetology program. This program includes licensure in hairstyling, nail technology, and cosmetology. After completing my freshman year at the University of New Mexico, I made the decision to take a break from traditional academics to build a strong financial foundation and pay for beauty school on my own.

Through this period of self-discovery and reflection, I’ve encountered numerous opportunities that have allowed me to grow—in knowledge, skills, and ambition. I’m now more confident than ever in the path I want to take and understand the steps necessary to reach my goals.

My ultimate dream is to one day own and operate my own business—creating not just a salon, but a community and environment that supports others in finding and pursuing their own passions. I am committed to doing whatever it takes to make that vision a reality.
