My Greatest Supporters

I give thanks to God for guiding me down different paths and placing numerous blessings along the way. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! I am also grateful to have a family who loves me, supports me, and encourages me to become better versions of myself each day. Thank you mom, grandma, Oscar, Gabriela, and my angel Milo, for being my joy and reason to smile every day!

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

There are two Saint Mary's memories that I will cherish forever. The first memory is when my family and I attempted to walk up to the SMC cross during their visit on campus. Long story short, they refused to walk all the way up the hill! The second memory that I will forever hold close to my heart is traveling to Rwanda during Jan term and meeting some of the most beautiful souls.

My Next Chapter

Whatever the next chapter of my life is, I trust that God has already paved the way for me and is working it out in my favor. Wherever I am supposed to be, I will be. I take full comfort in knowing that God already has a plan for me. In my waiting, God is working!
