About

My name is Luis Miguel Alvarez, I am currently in my junior year at Florida International University majoring in Psychology. I have worked as a YMCA afterschool counselor for about two years which I then moved on to work as head of research and development at Nextrition USA for the past two years now. I am fluent in both the Spanish and English languages. I am looking forward to graduating with a degree in Psychology by 2021 from Florida International University and then advancing to graduate school.
