I'm a dedicated staff writer originally from Puerto Rico, now residing in Philadelphia for the past seven years. With a deep passion for storytelling, I developed my writing skills throughout my academic and professional journey. I'm currently a staff writer for the campus life and news section at Her Campus Media Temple, where I cover a variety of topics ranging from student culture to local news. My unique perspective as a Puerto Rican young woman living in the U.S. has enabled me to bring diverse voices and experiences to the forefront of my work, making my writing resonate with a broad audience.
My academic journey has been marked by a commitment to understanding the complexities of both local and global issues. I'm pursuing a degree in communications, focusing on journalism, with a particular interest in how media can shape cultural identity. Through my education and professional writing, I aim to amplify the stories of marginalized communities and explore the intersections of race, identity, and media representation.
Outside of my professional life, I am passionate about content creation, graphic design, and fashion. I enjoy connecting with people and learn from them. In my free time, I enjoy to spend time with my family, sewing, reading, playing volleyball, as well as discovering new perspectives that continue to inspire my work. Through my writing and personal endeavors, I aspire to make a lasting impact on the world of journalism and beyond.
