One of the things I am most passionate about is education, and in a special way, to get students to reach their full potential. At UTEC, I have given tutoring and lab lessons in the course of Thermodynamics for a year and a half. This has helped me being aware of my peers different learning abilities and their struggles to learn. Now, I am working on different ways to strengthen their potential and help more students with different courses. In another hand, given that I am interested in robotics (as my minor) and also in mental health, I had been leading a team since late 2018 where we had been developing a robot named A.R.C.A, that will contribute to improve elderly mental health by making them feel accompanied at home, helping reduce their depression rate.
I can describe myself as an empathetic, curious and creative person. When you can't find me working on robotics related projects at UTEC or giving tutoring, you may find me playing guitar covers of my favourite artists(or singing them), having fun playing songs with my friends, baking with my mom or sister , reading books or watching Figure Skating competitions ('''big fan'''). Since there is no ice skating rinks in Peru, I am determined to learn how to rollerskate sometime soon.

*Teamwork and team building
*Sports! I really like following figure skating, gymnastics, curling, soccer, etc.
*Music! If Instruments! I love how singing and playing instruments can help you want a playlist for any occasion, talk about how music heals heal your soul or share something about it, and I am 'm here for it!.
*Robotics, Computer Vision and tech!<br />
All of these projects are part of our UIF Path and we are still working on some of them through new versions since our university is back to face-to-face and hybrid mode (virtual and onsite).
After becoming a fellow, I was able to attend the Silicon Valley Meetup in 2022 where I learned amazing things from the workshops, fabs, the UIF Team and from fellows around the globe. This experience had a big impact in me and my team, and now, with Fellows from different cohorts in UTEC we are aiming to do new projects as well as sharing experiences that can help fellows and faculties. More about our university's UIFellow projects and activities and be found here [https://www.instagram.com/uif.utec.pe/]. Last year, on 2022, I was given the opportunity to be a UIGuide and it was an amazing experience. This year I am really happy to be part of the Faculty team in my university "Universidad de Ingeniería y Tecnología UTEC" in Peru, as well as a UIGuide for the second time and I am looking forward for the new events this year will bring.

*I love playing the guitar and make some covers of songs (even though I almost never publish them).
**Edit: I got in a student music club in my university and am returning into playing songs and singing more!
*Dog lover! Even though I don't have a pet, whenever I visit family or friends I love spending time with them as well as with their pets.
*I would like to know more about life and cultures in different places in the world.
