I am a graduate of The Los Andes University, in Venezuela. I received my Law degree and obtained a Specialization in Intellectual Property Law. Since graduation, I have worked in the field of Intellectual Property. Because I am as passionate as I am about sharing knowledge, I began teaching inventors, writers, singers, and writers about how to protect their creations. I also began teaching in college. After I arrived in the U.S., my passion became directed towards helping those interested in learning Spanish as a second language.

My own experience have showed me that being able to communicate freely with people in another language is one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences a person can have. I tutor in a wide range of subjects, and I am absolute passionate about helping my students with preparing and reviewing papers, postgraduate theses, and dissertations. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, cooking healthy foods and creating new recipes, running (which I describe as my active meditation technique), and of course traveling.
