After high school I studied Chemical Engineering at University of Puerto Rico - Mayaguez Campus and graduated in 1999.  After dating for four years, I married that same summer my best friend and life partner.  I immediately went to work for Dept of State's Foreign Service as a Security Engineering Officer and worked in DC for two years.  I was then transferred to Beijing, China where we lived for two great years, 2001-2003.  After that I was transferred to Athens, Greece for two awesome years, 2003-2005, and was able to go to many of the Olympic games.  We had to be sent back due to my pregnancy, but everything worked out okay and I gave birth in Dec 2005 to a mischievous little girl named Inarú Isabel Beatriz Correa in Washington, DC.  My husband is a professor at George Washington University, and we just moved to Alexandria, VA.

I will be in the DC-area for a few years, if anybody is in the area, let me know.  I will be starting graduate school full time in August.

 

All in all, I am very happy.  Life has been very kind and generous to me.  I never thought I would marry and have kids, I thought that kind of stuff got in the way of life and work and a career.  Huh!  It's work and careers that get in the way of life.  I am having a wonderful time learning the meaning of life from my daughter and my husband...
