How has being part of UYM impacted you ?
The UYM program has taught me a lot of things. This program has its own way of showing people that being themselves can be very good, not only to themselves, but also to others. It helps others to do new things that can be very helpful in whats coming ahead. It helps them to connect with others, share things in common, and find out whats new.
What are your hopes for the future ?
Im looking foward to many things in the future, mainly things that have to do with UYM. I am looking forward to being a better person as I make better decisions that will impact my life forever.
