Hi! My name is Carolina Espinoza-Valdez. I am a first-year Liberal Studies major, my career goal is to become a Kindergarten to 2nd-grade teacher. Before coming to Monterey, I lived my whole life in this small city, Santa Maria. My parents are from Michoacan, Mexico so I grew up speaking only Spanish. My hobbies and interests include listening to music, going on road trips, thrifting, going to coffee shops, and hanging out with some of my favorite people. I also love seeing the sunrise and sunset, but I also love seeing the moon and stars.
