Why did you choose to study this career?

 When I was a child my dream jobs were to be a veterinarian, a magician, an inventor, and I always played with water and soap and I liked to think that it was an experiment or a potion.

When I grew up and entered high school I began to think more seriously about a career, at first I wanted medicine as every dreaming teenager in high school, then I realized it was going to be super difficult, so I began to develop this idea of liking science. I remember one class of genetics that I loved, because the idea of manipulating DNA was so cool, so I decided that it was going to be my objective in life, so I chose biotechnology, then I took the PSU, and I was chosen in the UTEM but I wanted the UCH so I took a sabbatical year and retook the PSU, in that year I realized I didn’t like math so  i wouldn’t be happy in an engineering like biotechnology, so I leaned towards a bachelor’s in biology degree, in the moment of choosing I placed this career and pedagogy in biology and chemistry in the UCH, with a difference of 10 points I didn’t make it to biology, but I took pedagogy and I don’t regret it, I was always a person who liked sciences but I also had an affinity to humanities, so this career was perfect for me, I think I didn’t think of this career before because the stigma that goes around the teachers, some people even belittle being a teacher, but in reality it is a super difficult career and the challenges that it brings with it couldn’t be handled by many people. 

I think that when I graduate, besides being a teacher I’d like to try a lot of jobs, such as director, administration I would even like to do science and contribute to different studies in laboratories.
