I am Dominican American from Washington Heights, a first generation college graduate who transitioned into UX Design and successfully adapted into the work culture at Google while leveraging my background to provide the team with a unique perspective on finance, autos and UX.

My Hobbies
Bachata Dancing
On my free time, I love to dance Bachata. Bachata is a social dance that originated from the Dominican Republic; my parents are from the Dominican Republic and I grew up in Washington Heights so I grew up dancing bachata. I am a proud Dominican American and dancing bachata is my creative outlet and a way to connect to my cultural roots.
