I have moved around the United States and the world my entire life. I’ve lived in Hartford Connecticut (birth to 3mos), Isabella, Puerto Rico (3mos to 4yrs), Tampa, Florida (4yrs to 10yrs), Bethesda, Maryland (10yrs to 12yrs & 14yrs to 15yrs), Mexico City, Mexico (12yrs to 14yrs), Madrid, Spain (15yrs to 18yrs) and now in Chicago, Illinois (18yrs to present). Moving around my entire life has allowed me to gain skills like adapting to new cultures, environments, and people. This has made me very good at making new friends and getting along with coworkers. My time in Madrid allowed me to work 2 different internships at the U.S. Embassy Madrid in the Community Liaison Office and the Regional Security Office. This has helped me gain experiences and skills that most beginning jobs would not provide such as cybersecurity training and being in a work environment with such a high degree of professionalism. Living in Spanish speaking regions for the majority of my life allowed me to be able to understand and communicate proficiently in the Spanish language. I am now starting my college career and am majoring in Biology on a Pre-Dental route.
