I come from a family of five; I am the middle child, and I definitely have middle child syndrome. My two brothers, my parents, and I migrated from Michoacán, Mexico, at the age of 10 and grew up here in Ventura County. I attended CSUCI, where I graduated in 2014 with my degree in biology. Currently, I live with my partner of four years, his two kids, and our four dogs. Two of my favorite food combinations are beer and pizza, also red wine (Syrah) and dark chocolate. My favorite ice cream flavor is strawberry, and I’m currently obsessed with pistachio butter.
