Who am I?

Hi, my name is Brenda Padilla and I am an undergraduate student at the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University. I was born in a small city right next to the U.S. Mexico border and raised in Mexico until I was 4. Then, I moved to Tucson, Arizona and started my education there until high school. After, I clearly moved to Durham, NC for college.

I have a medium sized family compared to many hispanic family sizes. I have 3 siblings among them is my twin sister who attends the University of Arizona. I also have 3 dogs, a German Shepherd and 2 Blue Healers.

I played sports all my life; soccer and softball. I played third-base, shortstop and goalkeeper.

Currently, I am a full time student barely making it through. lol.
