Brenda Maya

 

My name is Brenda Maya and I was born in Leon, Nicaragua. My family left Nicaragua when I was only a couple of months old. We lived in Guatemala for about five years until my family members decided to migrate to United States. I have been in the U.S. for fourteen years now. I am twenty years old and I am currently attending University of Florida. My plans are to major in English with specialty in creative writing. I believe taking this course will better my understanding of literature around the world so that one day I can apply this to my own work.
