ABOUT ME:

I come from a very small island named Aruba. My favorite hobbies are going to the gym, hanging out with family and friends, and studying. Something interesting about me is that I can speak four languages. These are Papiamento (Native language), Dutch, English, and Spanish. An interesting thing about my native language is that you cannot find it on Google Translate, which is cool. 

WHY I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT MINNESOTA STATE MANKATO:

I am passionate about Minnesota State Mankato because of its diversity. Since I am an international student, I do not have any family members in America. Choosing a college that would help me feel welcome was very important, and this University made that possible.

IMPACT OF DONORS:

Donors significantly impact Minnesota State University Mankato in various ways, such as scholarships and financial aid, athletics and sports, programs and centers, and community engagement. 

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT:

I am involved in theatre volunteering as an usher. I am also planning on volunteering in many activities on campus!

Your investment will undoubtedly contribute to the advancement of knowledge, the empowerment of students, and the betterment of the University.
