Place of birth: San Juan, Puerto Rico
Countries/cities in which you have lived/worked/studied:
I have lived in Miami, Washington, DC and New York City. I studied abroad in
Florence, Italy, Siena, Italy and Cagli, Italy.
Interests/hobbies: I love to travel and gain insight about new and diverse cultures. I also enjoy
reading, photography, music, foreign films, hiking and spending my free time with
my dog.
Interesting facts: Before my position here at CC-CS I worked at the Embassy of Italy in Washington,
DC. Due to the language skills I acquired with my study abroad program in Italy,
I won a spot and was the first non-Italian American employed there. I am a great
example of how studying abroad can provide great opportunities and change your
life!
