Ever since the 6th grade, I knew I wanted to be a meteorologist. This dream came true in June 2013 when I completed my bachelor's degree in Physical Sciences with a double major in Atmospheric Sciences and Meteorology at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez. In August 2014, a new adventure began to continue chasing this dream. Nowadays, I'm pursuing a master's degree in Physical Oceanography with a particular interest in studying the ocean-atmosphere interactions and their consequences in climate change.
