My experience at
AIU was incredible from beginning to end.

I believe I’m here
to create meaningful and lasting relationships with my clients, friends and
everyone I get the opportunity to meet.

I’m passionate
about creating something amazing and that requires a lot of time that didn’t
allow me to focus on getting my degree, getting to work on your own pace
towards achieving the degree is the best advantage of my experience at AIU.

I’m passionate
about multiple things and that’s why I consider myself a Renaissance girl. I
was born in Guatemala and spent most of my life there, but I love traveling and
learning about new cultures so I’m sometimes on the move, this was the other
advantage of completing my studies online.

I started working
when I was 17 years old and studied at the same time because I had to be
independent and help my family, due to the economical situation and low
resources at my home.

I became
experienced in my field and got the chance to work with amazing people,
companies, studios and teams. Since I was 19. I Directed and produced multiple
projects as well as working like a project manager on a freelance basis.

I’m really
passionate, peaceful, I love helping others, and I like learning something new.
My family has a passion for food and my grandmother owns a bakery back in
Guatemala. So I love cooking and baking dishes from around the world. My dad is
an artist specialized in oil painting so I was involved in art since I was 8
years old. Painting and drawing are my hobbies, mostly to imprint something in
this world. I love smart conversations and I’m a big believer in going deeper
into things and creating consciousness in those surrounding me. I love
psychology and philosophy. I’m an Omniest meaning I don’t claim any religion
but I respect and recognize all religions.

I hope I can
inspire you in any way or help you create something deep and amazing.

I hope I can
inspire others to always keep learning and don’t give up on achieving a
Diploma, degree or just a course because we are capable of so much more of what
we can even imagine. I’m thankful for the resources that AIU created for me and
the support system through my career.
