Why Miami?
I chose Miami because I didn't feel like a number. I felt as though my education was valued here and that I could succeed. I knew that I would have countless opportunities and that this University would make me a more well-rounded person.
How did you choose your major?
I have always wanted to be a lawyer and have always be interested in how the government system works. Wanting to know the behind-the-scenes of the political system, I knew I wanted to do Political Science.
I have taken Spanish since kindergarten, and I have always loved how I could connect with other people who don't speak the same language as me. I want to be able to help people from different groups and ethnicities in the future as a lawyer, so that is also why I chose Spanish as well.
Key Moment at Miami
I really enjoy my Women Gender Studies class and my Social Justice Perspective class. I think that these classes make me more of an aware and knowledgable person. I get to see different perspectives of how people experience the world.
Advice to Prospective Students
I would tell them that Miami makes every single person feel important. They make sure people are fully comfortable on campus and allow for growth from every person.
What are your career goals?
I want to go to law school after Miami and become a lawyer. As of right now, I am very interested in environmental law, white-collar law, and international law. The goal is to own my own law firm and possibly run for some office.
