I bring a strong interest in public service, national security, and civic leadership, paired with hands-on experience working in structured, professional environments. I am fluent in English and conversational in Spanish and Portuguese, which has supported my work in community outreach and stakeholder communication. Outside of formal roles, I have led independent projects focused on civic education, youth leadership development, and program design. I value accountability, discretion, and continuous learning, and I am motivated by opportunities that allow me to contribute meaningfully while developing long-term professional skills.
