About me

Desde muy pequeña me sentía identificada en participar en organizaciones y poblaciones con capacidades alternativas, y ser mano para permitir a las personas un cambio positivo. Descubrí que mi carrera me permite hacer lo que más me gusta escuchar, estudiar e investigar pero al mismo tiempo crear para dar lo mejor a otro.
