My Story

Change is important to me. I believe nothing has ever reached its full potential. Yes, it is important to recognize success, but it is more important to push one's self. I was born March 15, 2000 in Monterrey and came to the U.S at the age of 3 with a will to learn and a drive to succeed.

Baseball

The sport of baseball has been a passion of mine since the age of 6. In our school, the class of 2018 created a baseball program for all the students who had a passion for the game. It has created a way to relieve stress and have fun in a community environment.

Video Games

Video games have always been a great way for me to have fun and enjoy time with friends. After a long day of work and school, I like to relax with some FIFA, Madden, or Call of Duty.

Wizard Camp

In this cent, rising sixth graders are welcomed to the community of Yes Prep. My role was to give them pointers on how to succeed in this new environment and help them understand the benefits of school.

Bible Study

Since a young age, religion has had an increasingly more important role in my life. Religions allows for personal support and the opportunity to gather around with my community to learn about God as a family.
