Ana Karen A.

## BIO My name is Ana Karen Avila Garduno and I am twenty-two years old. I was born in Mexico City, Mexico but was raised in the United States in Hayward, California and Macon, Georgia. I started writing at the age of twelve and at first it was just songs and poems but at the age of twenty I wrote my first novel which has not been published yet. I know Spanish, English, French and a little bit of Italian as well. I am passionate about foreign languages, music and writing. I have studied French at the Sorbonne University in Paris, France and have a certificate from there for Intermediate Level French. I lived for six months in Europe, two and a half in Paris and three and a half in Madrid. I am currently residing in Cancun, Mexico and I have been living here for a year as of April of this year. I also know about technology and computers since I enjoy spending time on my laptop and I have a passion for photography as well. I am constantly working on some writing project whether it is a poem or a song. I also have a full time job as a Reservations Push Agent at the Marketing 4 Sunset Group company here in Cancun, Mexico. I have not been back home in Macon for almost two and a half years and I have been away from Europe since the month of August of the year 2010 but I would love to go back to either one someday. ## Area of Expertise Windows Live Movie Maker, Works Word Processor, Foreign Languages, Writing, Poetry, Photography
