Introduction Letter

Hi, my name is Bertha Magana, I grew up in Michoacan, Mexico. I studied in the UMSNH (Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolas de Hidalgo ) in Morelia, Michoacan, Mexico. I got my bachelors degree in Pharmacobiology in 1995. I worked on my thesis for 2 year in a research chemestry lab. In 1998, I present my thesis in the uiversity and in the same year I moved to California because I got merried. I have a daugther who is 8 years old a my son is 4 years old. Currently, I work at Escondido Union High School District as a Bilingual Instructional Assistant. I help students whose first language is Spanish.

I do not have a lot of experience with technology,  I have never used Mac before. I am a PC person, and I do not depend on technology on a daily basis. I have a small laptop which is slow. I like to use my laptop to e-mail my friends and family in Mexico.

One factor on my decision to apply at CSUSM is that  I would like collaborate helping students whose first language is Spanish. In San Diego Area we have a big diversity. Also, I love to help students.
