Yaretzy Martinez was born on March 13, 2008. Yaretzy’s name means Unconditional love, full heart. On Yaretzy’s 13th birthday it was the last day before the pandemic shut everything down. Till this day Yaretzy wonders if her 13th birthday cursed the world. Cooking is one of her favorite hobbies. In fact she is currently in Culinary 2 class. Yaretzy has baked blueberry muffins in her culinary class. When Yaretzy was adding the blueberries to the muffins she added too many and got in trouble with her teammates. The muffins still turned out delicious. When Yaretzy’s mom got her first ultrasound they informed her Yaretzy was going to be a boy. So Yaretzy’s family gifted her mother boy clothes. Instead it turns out Yaretzy was a female. Yaretzy was a gift for her mother. Yaretzy has two older sisters and an older brother. She looks up to her older siblings. Yaretzy also hopes to attend USC like her older sister or UCLA like her older brother. Another of Yaretzy’s favorite hobbies is traveling. She especially enjoys going camping in Sequoia. The quote, “Sometimes good people make bad choices, it doesn’t mean they are bad people. It means they are human,” is a quote she likes. She believes it is very important for everyone to be reminded that you are allowed to make mistakes. Humans are bound to make mistakes and it doesn’t make you a bad person.
