2024-Present
University of Texas at Dallas
After graduating high school, I began my college journey at Collin College. Starting at a community college was a practical choice, but I knew from the beginning that I wanted to transfer to a larger university to expand my opportunities. During my time at Collin, I committed myself to excelling academically, staying focused on my goals, and building a strong foundation for my future studies.
Through hard work and perseverance, I was able to successfully transfer to the University of Texas at Dallas. This transition marked a significant milestone in my educational journey, reinforcing my belief in the value of determination and effort. The experience taught me that no matter where you start, it's your dedication and drive that determine where you end up.
My life

Family
My parents have been my greatest source of strength, guiding me through every challenge with unwavering support and love. Their encouragement, advice, and belief in me have shaped who I am today, and I’m endlessly grateful for their role in helping me overcome life’s hardships.
Fitness Journey
I began my fitness journey in my junior year of high school, Weighing at just 115 pounds, I took the initiative to work on improving both my body and mindset. Today, at 160 pounds, the gym has become more than a place to build strength—it’s taught me the importance of discipline, dedication, and continuous self-improvement.
Love for music
Music has always been a big part of my life growing up. It shaped my experiences and brought me comfort throughout the years. Growing up, I was surrounded by different genres and sounds that influenced my taste and emotional connection to music. Whether it was listening to my favorite songs on repeat, discovering new artists, or finding solace in melodies during tough times, music has consistently been there to uplift, inspire, and express what words often couldn't.
Friends
My friends hold a special place in my life, as they’ve always stood by me, no matter the challenges or mistakes I’ve faced. Their unwavering acceptance and genuine love for who I am mean the world to me, and for that, I am deeply grateful.
