About Me
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/18/Welsh_Corgi_Pembroke_puppy.jpg/220px-Welsh_Corgi_Pembroke_puppy.jpg)
I am a nineteen year old student at College of Dupage currently working towards an associates in arts and eventually plan to transfer out to UIC to pursue a Bachelor's in Elementary Education. I enjoy reading, writing, discovering new music, and watching anime in my free time. I am fluent in English and Spanish as well as proficient in French. I grew up in a hispanic household so I have been speaking Spanish my entire life and consider it as my first language. I began learning English in Kindergarten and have become pretty fluent throughout the years. I picked up French once I entered high school and studied it for four years. I love animals and currently have a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Kiwi who is my pride and joy, I would literally do anything for him.
Goals on Wikipedia
[edit]The main reason I currently have a Wikipedia account is because of school, but I do enjoy reading articles on here and always learn something new, so for now my main goals are
- Finish my school project
- Get lost in a rabbit hole of articles
- Maybe contribute on some articles here and there
Favorite Quote
[edit]This quote comes from Victor Hugo's "Les miserables" and never fails to give me reassurance when I need it.
