Ange is a proud Latina born of Puerto Rican and Honduran descent and reared in Boston, MA. She is a prospective Neuroscience & Behavior major with a minor in College of East Asian Studies.

In combining her areas of interest, Ange hopes to pursue a PhD in clinical or behavioral neuroscience with specialized research in understanding the ways in which trauma/chronic stress affects dysfunctions in subcortical circuits that are related to anhedonia-like symptoms. Specifically, Ange is concerned with the way in which this casual link is manifested in countries in East Asia with disproportionately high suicide rates. Her objective is to understand the neurological circuities with the goal to provide both structural interventions for treatment, direct care to protect vulnerable populations, and prevent growing numbers of those affected. Eventually Ange aspires to be an academic researcher, where she's able to both share and expand her knowledge and love for neuroscience.

Furthermore, Ange enjoys learning about various cultures by having vibrant conversations and thrilling experiences with others. Though she is not a big animal lover, horses and "little fishies" will always have her heart.
