About Me
I was born, raised, and attended school in Mexico City with the exception of 7th grade, when I studied abroad in Dublin, Ireland. While my parents and two brothers remain in Mexico, I visit them during breaks. Upon coming to Penn, I have discovered new and diverse interests in the city of Philadelphia, and I really look forward to the rest of my experiences at Wharton.
Extracurricular activities
The Wharton Council, the College House Music Program, running.
