Anezka Contreras

Bio

Hello! My name is Anezka Contreras. As a military brat turned international student, I have been incredibly lucky to be able to experience several distinct cultures and meet people from all walks of life. Having the privilege of joining different global communities has broadened my horizons and shaped me into who I am today. My love for trying new things makes me an excellent candidate and has helped me transition between different schools with ease. I'm extremely adaptable and I do what I can to continue pursuing my passions in any environment I'm in. In the future, I plan on becoming a foreign service officer so that I can continue living abroad, learning more about what the world has to offer, and doing my part to give back.
