Don’t miss the most current notes on the 2024 Elections in Debate, as well as the PREP results.

I have a degree in journalism, graduated in 2021 from the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS). I took extracurricular courses in Photoshop, photography, and writing. I was born to be a writer, a speaker and to face whatever comes my way to never stop believing in myself, a woman who can help you believe in colors and stop you until you see the value in yourself. With pleasure in searching for viral notes that manage to transmit the reality of the moment, to know every corner, in the same way to obtain and reflect truthful data from the national and international entertainment world and a vocation to inform about the southern states of Mexico. As a personal space, I mention that I seek inner peace in art galleries, books and writing. In the mornings I like to remember my virtues to have energy during the day, in the afternoons I am a fan of sunsets and at nights of photographing the moon, while every second of my life I admire myself as a person and Adele as my example of improvement .
