Hobbies
I am a fun and adventurous person who loves to explore different types of dance such as salsa, bachata, chacha, afrocuban, bellydancing, and others. I was also a student athlete at USF for two years until an injury caused me to retire. I enjoyed my time pole vaulting with an amazing group of athletes. This experience taught me how to manage my time so that I could keep my grades up while traveling almost every weekend. It also taught me to network and make connections with people all over the United States.
