Since she was a little girl, she always came up with crazy ideas to solve common daily problems. Currently, she wants to develop and carry out these ideas, inpired by her sister who is 17 years older than her and always supporting her in everything she wants to achieve. Being crazy for invenntions and her interest to know new people were the main reasons she decided to postulate for the UIF program during the first month of her freshman year, and she made it!
