"If you can't fly, then run,
If you can't run, then walk,
If you can't walk, then crawl,
But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward." - Martin Luther King Jr.

About Me
I am from Colombia! I moved to Florida 17 years ago and just very recently to Colorado. I completed my Bachelors in Foreign Languages Teaching in my hometown. For the past 16 years I have been teaching Spanish and working with ESOL students. When I am not working, I enjoy traveling, watching TV, reading, and spending time with my family and dog. I am looking forward to supporting my students through their college journey while building strong connections that hopefully will last beyond UCCS.
