Tour Guides and Senior Ambassador at Mount Holyoke College

They/them/theirs

Class of 2025

Hometown: Buenos Aires, Argentina

Major: Politics


I chose Mount Holyoke College because...

We're a gender diverse women's college! I feel comfortable exploring my sexuality and identity, which is something I have always wanted coming from FL. Furthermore, we get more diversity in perspective than other non-gender diverse women's colleges.

My favorite MHC tradition is...

Milk and Cookies! We have milk, cookies and juice boxes every night so it feels like home!

My favorite class is...

From all times: "Elections over the World." Presently, "Environmental Geopolitics and Security" Both these classes delve into a variety of socio-political contexts worldwide and allows me to learn about an array of perspectives I did not know about before.

My advice to prospective students is...

Breathe!! Don't submit your exam scores if you do not think they will work towards your benefit, and make sure you have as many people as possible read your essays!

I'm passionate about...

Crocheting Tarot Reading/Writing Exploring

I'm involved with...
