About Me.

My life started in Pasto, Colombia, where I was born into my amazing family filled with culture and love. A few years after living there, we moved to the city of Cali in Colombia, where I lived and studied for a few years. Eventually after some time we decided to move to America for around 8 months, we settled in Livingston, Texas before coming to West Palm Beach, Florida, where I now reside and study today. I moved here when I was young and have been living here ever since. I’m extremely grateful for the variety of experiences and opportunities that being here has offered me and I'm proud to call this place my home.

Now, as a junior in high school, I enjoy being here and going out but also studying and working hard preparing for the next chapter of my life. This school year has taught me a lot as we’ve been going on educational field trips. Going to Europe with the school taught me a lot and gave me other perspectives about the world. Maybe studying overseas is not a bad option after all. Other trips such as the ones for marine biology taught me more insight on the life below us, and some upcoming marketing class field trips which I'm excited for, all these experiences have opened my eyes a lot looking at other fields I can study in the future.

Hoping to study business in college and become a real estate investor, I see a future where I can create wealth and opportunities for myself and my family. Building a stable future is key for my future goals where I can have my family living comfortably, retiring my parents and much more. Enjoying time with family is a must for most and myself included, traveling and getting to explore the world with family and friends is part of the reason I will be working hard towards my future, to be able to accomplish my dreams. Ultimately I would love to retire early and have complete freedom and control over my time, that's the ultimate goal I will strive for.
