I am a student who moved from Peru to the United States in 2023 at the age of fifteen. Adjusting to a new country, language, and school system has been one of the most challenging and transformative experiences of my life. I have learned resilience, independence, and the importance of perseverance even when situations feel unfamiliar or overwhelming. I am currently focused on my academic growth and will be pursuing a degree in business at DePaul University. My goal is to build a successful future where I can support my family and use my experiences to help others who are going through similar transitions.
