Affiliations

During my years as a student and as a worker, I have had the opportunity to work with children and older adults. For many years, I worked as a physical therapist in pediatrics, which helped me develop skills, learn, understand, become more human, and believe that teamwork, discipline, and perseverance can help us improve many lives, especially in my case with children and, a few years later, with older adults. Working with children has been the best life experience I've ever had. I want to continue developing in this field, since my greatest passion is contributing to improving the quality of life of infants and adolescents. This experience has helped me in my new career as a mother, which I perform with great love, and I know I'm doing very well.

Accomplishments

As a student, I had the opportunity to represent my classmates as their leader. It was a great experience, as I was the example they had to follow. This forced me to be a better person every day, to demonstrate my skills as a good student and classmate, to help others, but above all, to remain calm, to have respect, consideration, admiration, and understanding for everyone around me, especially my classmates.
