Kinder Bueno PRO reimagines the iconic hazelnut treat as a fitness-focused source, replacing empty calories with high-quality macros. This project is fueled by our own childhood nostalgia and a desire to evolve our favorite snacks for a health-conscious lifestyle.
As college students, we’ve seen our generation struggling with the pressure of body image and the restrictive labels of “good” vs. “bad” foods. We created this concept to prove that nutrition doesn't have to come at the expense of joy, offering a flavorful, guilt-free bridge between fitness goals and gratification.

I am double majoring in Italian and Care, Health &Society. Two fields that have shaped both my academic journey and who I am as a person.
Studying Italian has given me far more than language skills; it has opened the door to new ways of thinking, meaningful relationships, and experiences that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. At the same time, it has influenced the way I view medicine—not only as a science, but also as a form of communication grounded in language, culture, empathy, and human connection.
By combining my studies in Italian and healthcare, I have learned the importance of understanding patients beyond their symptoms and connecting with them through culture and communication.
In the future, I plan to attend medical school at Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara and become an orthopedic surgeon.
