What do I do?
I'm a sophomore at Georgia State University. My major is Political Science with a concentration in pre-law and a minor in French. As for a job, I currently
work for a law firm downtown. I'm also a sister of the Poderosa Pi Beta Chapter of Sigma Lambda Gamma National Sorority, Inc. and am currently serving as VP of Chapter Operations, member of the Executive Board, member of the Sisterhood Enhancement Committee, as well as Secretary on the Multicultural Greek Council.
What do I enjoy doing?
Two years ago I spent a summer teaching myself to code HTML and CSS,
hence the design service I have started. However, the design service is currently on a hiatus due to being busy with school, work, family, and the sorority.
I also enjoy writing a bit of fiction when I am
bored and have even tried my hand at poetry.
Languages intrigue me, so at the moment I am
trying to learn German and Japanese and of
course keeping sharp on my French.
I have to say that I really enjoy the Atlanta night-life and regularly visit the clubs out here.
When I'm stressed I sit on my bed to stare at
Starry Night
on my wall and I seem to never get tired of
this.
I also love reading and I think I'll have to put up a list of some of my favorite authors up soon. I also have a passion for traveling.
What are my plans?
I'm working on finishing my Bachelor's here at GSU. After that, I hope to go to Law School maybe at Boston U. I plan on studying Human Rights Law. The plight of those without a voice and those less priviliged has always been a passion of mine since I lived in Colombia. I think that I saw so much poverty and lack of opportunities there that my goal in life is to help those who cannot help themselves. I'm also interested in the right of undocumented peoples in teh United States and have participated in various activist activities with organizations aimed at helping them.
I hope to start my own firm later on down the
road and make lots and lots of money.
I plan on going back to Colombia soon and
visiting the whole country and learning more
about the beauty
of my nation. I also want to tour Europe and
maybe visit Japan someday.
