My name is Jelianis M. Carrero, I study Comparative Literature at the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras. I grew up on the west side of the island, specifically Aguada. I have a deep love for words, whether it’s books, music, or writing. I am a writer at Her Campus, here I get to express myself as a writer and follow one of my passions.
When Im not reading a book or writing an article, you can find me at my local pilates class. Im a true believer that movement fuels creativity, and Pilates is the perfect way for me to stay grounded. Another one of my happy places? Drinking an iced matcha latte while I brainstorm writing Ideas.
In the future, I hope to either teach as a professor or be a full-time independent writer to continue exploring the power of literature and language. I would love to inspire and be part of the conversation about the things that matter the most.
