I am 20 years old, and I am currently a senior at UTRGV. I am pursuing a BS in Biology, and I plan to graduate in May 2016. After my undergraduate degree, I would like to move on to pursue an MBA with a concentration in a technology related field. For the last two years, I've been working at UTRGV as a tutor. I have also been employed for the last 3 years at a clinic. It is definitely difficult to balance taking 20 credit hours this semester while juggling two jobs, but I am always up for a challenge.
I was born and raised in the Rio Grande Valley, and I am proud to call this area home. Growing up, I was really involved in Dance. I was internationally competitive, but I sacrificed dance when I started college. I decided I wanted to focus on school and work.
I currently still reside with my parents. My home life has been crazy between two sisters, my parents, and all of our pets! I am currently very busy, so I don't spend too much time at home with family. I always make sure to have enough spare time to take care of my cats though.
If you would like to get to know me better, please reach out and talk to me! Thank you for reading my profile.
