"Nothing ever stays the same. Be happy no matter what happens, because change is a big part of life."

Got U is a platform born out of my own frustrations as an international student applying to universities. I want to simplify the university search process. While this may be an ambitious task to some, there's never a better time to start, so why not start now?!

I am grateful to my international upbringing, which has made me adaptable to different situations and allowed me to meet people from around the world with a story of their own.

My interests are quite varied, but recently I have been working on 3 additional side projects:

1. International Wildlife News (IWN) - recently co-founded by my friend and I to raise awareness on endangered species. Often times, we have realized people are down to help, but they don't know how so with each post we write, we add a clear call to action.

2. Marketing Manager for Lakedale Institute of Finance - Part of the initial team to establish a marketing strategy, starting with email marketing. Also designed the logo and advised on website layout.

3. Writer for TodoSobre.Travel- there's so much to explore in Dubai and the UAE and I wanted to improve my Spanish vocabulary so I thought, why not write posts about this while I discover what the country has to offer.

If you made it to the end, congrats on making it this far! If you feel we could work together, don't hesitate to get in touch!
