What is your best advice for a student just starting at the University or Oregon?
Don’t compare your journey to anyone else’s. Everyone has their own way of doing life and is on their own path towards completing college.
Do you have any special skills, talents, interests, or hobbies?
I’m a dancer. I mainly love dancing Bachata, Cumbia, and Salsa. I also love to paint, read, hang out with family and friends, attend cultural activities, and listen to music of all kinds.
What would you be doing if you didn’t work in the CMAE?
Probably dancing my way through different countries or be a cake decorator.
