Why Westminster
I first visited Westminster on January 2016 on a guided tour, and I was very lucky to
be able to attend a Westminster Choir rehearsal. It was a magical experience and it
had such an impact in me that I knew I had to come back, so I decided to apply, and
now I’m happy to be part of this great school, and its wonderful community.

Life outside of class

I’m actually a grad on call in the Residence Life Department.

I’m listening to
Djavan, Eliane Elias, Zaz, Phil Collins, Jack and the Weatherman, Dirty Heads, Kings
of Convenience, Coldplay.

Favorite apps
Whatsapp, Instagram and Facebook because they are great to keep in touch with my
family and friends, and to be in touch with new friends here at Westminster.

Favorite food
I love sushi, and Italian Food!

Favorite book
Reportaje al Pie del Patibulo

Professional plans after graduation

Help the choral movement grow in Ecuador through cultural projects involving
youth and children choirs.
