Fun Facts
I am a first generation American. Because my parents are Colombian immigrants, I am fluent in both English and Spanish. In my free time I love to run and draw to relax.
About Me
I am a senior Psychology major at Trinity University. I hope to continue on into a Masters program in Clinical psychology with the end goal of becoming a therapist. At Trinity I am involved in RUF, an on-campus Christian organization where I serve as a Bible study leader, as well as Eco Allies and Rotary club which are more community service focused groups.
Experience
I have had much experience working with children. I have worked as a Sunday school teacher for five years, worked as a preschool teacher at a day school for a summer, and in the Children's Research Lab at Trinity for over a year. I have done research with both a developmental and a clinical psychology lab at Trinity for a total of two years. As for experience with the Spanish language, I took five Spanish classes in grade school as well as a few at Trinity and the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid.
Approach
I was always a very hyper and creative child who struggled with learning topics in school that didn't immediately grasp my attention. Because of this, I have always adopted (and appreciated) a more hands on and interactive approach to learning. I believe that when trying to get a concept across, its always best to put in into examples that involve the child's own personal interests. I understand the struggle of having to reread things multiple times because of my minds tendency to wander.

Psychology Tutoring
I have taken Cognitive, Social and Lifespan Development classes, receiving B/B+ in each. I was lucky enough to be able to work in a developmental lab at Trinity where I got to apply and gain a better understanding of these concepts. I have also taken classes in other areas of psychology such as Sensation and Perception (B-), Psychopathology (B-), Social Psych (B+), and Cross Cultural Psych (A). I am currently doing research involving clinical psych and am hoping to present at a conference in the spring.
