I was born in the state of Zacatecas, Mexico, but I grew up in Hamilton City, CA, a very small town close to Chico, CA. I was a very active student in high school. I was in band, student government, M.E.C.H.A., M.E.S.A and did cheerleading for 3 years.
In college I became extremely interested in Latin American history, especially after completing an internship and taking classes in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico. When I returned from my internship, I declared my majors and graduated in May 2004. Two weeks after graduation, I moved to Sacramento.
