She is also pursuing a certificate in Latin American & Caribbean studies. Carmen speaks English and Spanish fluently and is beginner-level in speaking Mandarin and French.

​

Coming from a family that is entirely Guatemalan, this sparked her interest in focusing on Central American countries within Latin American studies.

She will be pursuing a master's degree in U.S. Foreign Policy and National Security and focusing on a career within foreign policy.
