Downtown LA! The energy is has is amazing, I mean…the ambience really pumps you up. There is so much to see, so much to discover, especially in the nightlife there.

I love Mustangs. I particularly like the classics: 1965, 1967, and 1969. I grew up with my dad and brother who also loved them and would go and look for one all the time. My brother has passed down his Mustang to me, which is pretty great! I also like to play video games.

Getting my Master’s Degree with be a huge goal of mine, but ultimately being able to help people and place my little change in this world would be my purpose. As cliché as it sounds, I want to be able to have changed someone’s (or people’s) lives for the better.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Between Madrid, New York City, and London, I’ll stick to London. The weather is perfect for me, and the people are interesting. It is a different ambient than here, and it doesn’t hurt that it is so close to all the other European countries.
If you could listen to one song for the rest for your life what would it be?
Numb by Lincoln Park. I grew up with this band, so it always reminds me of home.
