On Mother’s Day my mom got stomach cancer. Finances went downhill. This has made it a challenge for me to finish school. I want to finish school in Business Administration, create a fashion brand for cancer, then donate my proceeds to cancer centers and charities. It’s important to support their research, so I should give back by getting involved.
As a kid I struggled with attention deficit and a learning disability. Academics were hard for me. Many times I felt like giving up. I was also bullied everyday in middle school which also caused me a great deal of stress. Since I've had these struggles, I want to help other kids who have difficulties and let them know they can make it too.

Nursing has always been a passion of mine. I want to become a neonatal nurse and help all the sick newborns. From experience with my own daughter in the special care unit. I know that it’s heartbreaking to see your child under monitors and medical equipment. I want to be there to advocate for my patient and stand by their families side.

I have learned that in whatever I do, there is always a greater purpose. As I pursue a degree in Public Relations, a field heavily dependent on public image, I will not tone down my identity as a young Hispanic woman. I want women to know that in any field, success is not a trade-off for your femininity.

For those who are less fortunate, receiving quality medical care is often extremely difficult. I am currently a freshman at CSUF, and I am studying biochemistry in the hopes of attending medical school. I would like to become a doctor for underprivileged areas, providing for those who would otherwise have little to no options.

My goal as a filmmaker is to do my part in revealing social justice themes in a thoughtful way, so that people from any country can be exposed to other ways of viewing the world, and to offer different perspectives that might open a viewer’s mind. Dr. Pepper can help me obtain a degree that will help my films impact a larger audience.

What inspired me to choose business as my major is due to me always being curious on how is it that a company becomes so successful. My ultimate goal is to be able to manage a company by hiring the correct people for specific positions. Eventually with my income I want to give back to the community and build schools.

The day I met my newborn nephew I learned that he had left heart syndrome and I saw that the only thing protecting his heart was a paper patch. Once I realized that 5 years ago this illness would have been terminal, a fire was lit inside me. This event confirmed my desire to be a nurse practitioner and develop cures for infants with illnesses.
