🚀 About Me

I was born in Oruro, Bolivia, a high-altitude city known for its rich mining history and vibrant cultural traditions like the famous carnival! I completed high school at Anglo American School in Oruro and earned my International Baccalaureate Diploma from Pearson College UWC on Vancouver Island, Canada.

Currently, I’m a first-year student at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana, pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Engineering with plans for their 3+2 Pre-Professional Engineering Program. My ultimate goal? Aerospace Engineering! 🚀✈️

📚 Academic Journey

At Earlham, I’m diving deep into the Engineering program, which provides a robust foundation in:

• Mathematics & Physics
• Engineering Fundamentals
• Liberal Arts skills (communication & ethical reasoning)

I’m particularly fascinated by how these fundamentals connect to aerospace topics like:

• Fluid Mechanics
• Structural Analysis
• Control Systems
• Aircraft & Spacecraft Design

Previous Academic Excellence

Before Earlham, I completed the IB Diploma at Pearson College UWC, a rigorous pre-university curriculum that strengthened my:

• Quantitative reasoning
• Research abilities
• Academic resilience
• Global perspective

The UWC’s community-focused environment profoundly influences how I approach engineering as a tool for solving real-world problems.
