Summary
Hello! I was born in San Jose, California, and went to school at Yerba Buena High School. During my third year, I took community college courses that provided me units that directly transferred to UC Santa Barbara. Currently, I am working towards my Bachelors Degree of Science in Biopsychology at UCSB, hoping to get into nursing school once I graduate. While studying to obtain my undergraduate degree, I plan to find hands-on work experience in the healthcare environment, whether it be through using my Certified Nursing Assistant license or with my CPR certification.
