Being a Cuban immigrant has provided me with a unique bicultural perspective that has become my support system in the United States. For the first eleven years of my life, my culture was composed of music and dancing. In every street corner of my hometown, there was a group of seniors playing domino and close by, their grandchildren dancing to the Salsa music being played on the radio to pass the time. The hardships created by the communist regime are overshadowed by memories of my mother teaching me how to sew and by my paternal grandmother teaching me how to enjoy a strong Cuban coffee. Those precious memories of home became a source of pain when I migrated to the United States.
Personal Statement “Ya nos vamos,” would be the words that would make me sad. At the age of 8 it would make any kid sad if they had to leave the park.

I know that ultimately, humans strive for belonging and community; thus, while loneliness and anger may always be in existence, so will togetherness and bliss. In this small nation of mine, people speak at least two languages and in addition to the English language, I have experienced the beauty of the Malay traditional tales, Chinese dragons, and Indian cuisines through years of golden rich and poor multiracial friends, stories, and cultural events, ranging from the Islamic Eid Al-Fitr to the graceful moves of Bollywood dances.
Though I am mostly looking to give back to the UNO community through my employment, I do hope to gain a few skills and experiences from it. I hope to gain more communication skills by connecting with the various individuals that are comprised to make the UNO community.

With strong communication, I can utilize the ideas and opinions that others have about projects or goals that I am working on. I can also get involved and collaborate with others to ensure that the projects that are being worked on can be successful and benefit the students of UNO.
"We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us." Anonymous Proud, friendly, and enjoyable, Mexicans are certainly the people the most valuable and alive I know. The Mexican culture, full of history and diversity is without doubt one of the culture I connect the most with.

Often, I find myself sitting in my room questioning why I chose to pursue a career in the field of education. I only begin to question my decision in becoming a future educator when I encounter major challenges. Today, I am fully aware that in life, one is unable to run away from his or her obstacles; however, he or she has the potential to overcome these barriers.
