Holding a Bachelor of Arts in English/Creative Writing with a minor in Modern Languages, magna cum laude, from the University of Miami, Camila was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and raised in Miami, Florida, from the age of three. Currently, she is pursuing her J.D. at the Florida International University College of Law.
