Today I want to take the chance to, once again, thank my mom for always being there for us (my brother and me), through the good and the bad and never, ever letting us down. We disagree sometimes, she gets nervous when I drive, but some people don’t even want to get in the car with me, she does. I want to thank her for always believing in me, for giving me a job when no one else would, and for always helping me move forward.
I also want to thank my grandma who is another rock, always cheering me on, making me believe in myself. She raised my mom and three aunts to be four strong and successful women, just like her, who are all an example to follow. I want to thank all of them for being second mothers to me, for loving me like a daughter and always being there.
I am so lucky to have an amazing mom and four mother figures who have never let me down and taught me how to be strong. I learned to be unstoppable from them and I can’t think of a better day to thank them all and tell them how much I love them.
Also, Happy Mother’s Day to all the other moms, grandmas, aunts and other motherly figures. The world is a better place because of them and they deserve more than what we give them.

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
