Maya Gaytan Quiroz

Although my job experience is limited as I am not a US citizen and I do not have a job permit. I have found alternative jobs such as pet sitting and babysitting, where I have learned to be more responsible with other beings. I have skills in cleaning, calming children and making them feel safe.

Hiking: During the weekends 

Canoeing: Summer camp in Canadian rivers paddling in white water 

Printmaking: Whenever I have free time, I constantly keep creating new prints

Guitar: Free time 

Piano and Singing: I take classes and practice in my free time

Writing Articles: I write for my school newspaper in the Spanish section 

Photography: Take pictures all the time, and I use some of them for my art projects 

Poetry: Whenever I feel inspired, sometimes I publish some poems in my school's art magazine

Dancing: Tuesdays and Wednesdays I take contemporary dance classes. I also dance salsa and cumbia just for fun.
