Teresa Quintanilla was born on 2012, on the 17th of a dark October night. She was born in the U.S.A, where’d she’d spend most of her life, despite the fact that her parents were from Mexico. She did however spend a short time of her childhood living in Mexico before moving back to the U.S.A. Then came school, she spent most of her time in one up until 3rd grade, when she moved houses, and therefore, also moved schools. It was a big change, but she managed to adapt and make some of her best friends in that new school, ones she still talks with to this day. 

Aside from her school life, Teresa has many hobbies she enjoys doing in her free time. These hobbies are drawing, painting, animating, playing her clarinet, and reading. Most of her hobbies are tied to creative endeavors because that’s what she enjoys about them, she enjoys the craft, meaning, and art, which is also why she enjoys listening music the most. The genre varies, but indie rock, and artists like Laufey and Frank Sinatra are a recurring pattern in her taste of music.

She has a group of achievements she is proud of. She has been in 4 academic contests, and won 2 of them, one first place, and second place for the other. She has also won an art contest with a trip to rodeo as the prize. 

Her goals in life all tie back to just being successful in what she enjoys. She hopes to get into a good college with scholarship, and a job she enjoys and gets paid well of from, so this way she can support herself and her family in the future, while still enjoying her job.
