About
Hi! I'm majoring in Biopsychology, Cognition, and Neuroscience and minoring in Japanese. In the future, I want to work in the pharmaceutical industry because I am passionate about medication that helps and enhances millions of lives. I enjoy reading, trying new food, eating ice cream, and doing makeup in my free time. I specifically love reading Latin American Literature, especially Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I also really like traveling, my dream destinations are Japan and Jerusalem.
I grew up in Barranquilla, Colombia, where my family is. I go back home every chance I get as I love my culture, the people, my dog, and just the vibes (and Colombian food:')) My dream/life goal is to one day work to enhance children's education on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. Some of my favorite places are Cartagena because of its beautiful beaches and islands, Sabanalarga, where I was born and where my grandparents live, and Miami because it is my home away from home. I love UROP because it is an excellent opportunity for students to explore their interests and work toward their passion. It is also an excellent resource for finding things and topics you like.
