About (request update)

The first child of seven, I came to the United States in 2010 at about age 18, becoming the first in my family to travel abroad and ultimately earn a college degree. Here, I found a new home away from home and developed a deep appreciation of the American culture and dream.

Current Whereabouts:

Completing my Masters degree in Natural Resources and just joined the US Military as a Specialist U.S. Army

Life & Professional Aspirations:

I have always known that one day I would be a scientist, a teacher and a leader. This has driven me to always be on the lookout for professional opportunities that would enable me to experience a holistic and diverse environment where I could learn something new every day.
