Hey! I'm Alyssa
Pursuer of knowledge
Artist
Undergraduate at University of Connecticut

Growing up half Puerto Rican, half Western European, living in both cities (NYC) and suburbs, and experiencing both traditional and non-traditional education -- I guess you could say I understand a diverse perspective.
I'm Alyssa, a rising Junior at UConn studying Digital Media and Design with a concentration in Video and Film Production. At UConn, I am not only developing my artistry and craft, but am also growing my leadership skills as Vice President of Chi Alpha Campus Ministries.
I aspire to use my skills and passion to share stories of hope, inspiration, representation, and to give a voice to those who often go unheard.
Every day, I aspire to dream, create, and grow a little bit more than I had yesterday!

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution."
