R STARS Project’s mission is to motivate, inspire, and celebrate high schoolers and senior citizens through joyful experiences centered on self-care, community, and leadership. In line with our mission, we will be recognizing R Students That Are Raising Standards!
To kick off R STARS Project’s Alumni Highlight Series, we present Claudia!
About Claudia
Claudia is part of R STARS Class of 2019. She graduated from Miami Dade College with her AA in music education. Claudia is currently working on a Bachelor’s in Music Education at Florida International University.
You can always find her smiling, laughing, and dancing. She is a delight to have around, and you can always count on her to light up a room. When she needs to lift her spirits, she listens to music.
Actually, Claudia’s love for music runs deep. Her father introduced her to the piano when she was just 2 months old. We call her R Piano Girl, because she has played for R senior citizens, and loves to bring joy to the room with music! She even teaches private piano lessons when she’s not studying.
Like RSP, she has much love for the senior citizens in her life. She even spent the summer in Spain visiting her Abuela!
Fun Facts
Her favorite quote is, “Do not let the day end without having grown a little, without being happy, without having risen your dreams.” – Walt Whitman
Some fun facts about Claudia are:
- She likes to watch anime.
- Comfy clothes are her go-to when she’s at home.
- Bubble tea makes her happy and completely changes her mood.
Keep Shining
RSP has been touched by her compassion, high energy, and commitment to helping us create experiences of joy for the community around us. We look forward to continuing to bring this same spirit to all of our activities and acts of service in the community.
Keep shining, Claudia!
