Carmen Paola Julián Maximino’s journey at PEACE began in Higuera Blanca through the Campeones program, where her unwavering dedication and consistency earned her the title of Top student of her generation. That recognition opened the door to Prepanet, where Carmen Paola continues to shine, maintaining extraordinary grades: 96.50, 96.17, and 94.79 in her first three academic terms.
Beyond the numbers, Carmen Paola’s story is rooted in the power of family and perseverance. She finds inspiration in her mother, looks to her sister as a close companion, and relies on her father’s steadfast support. At PEACE Punta de Mita, she’s found a nurturing space that helps her bring together creativity and leadership, participating wholeheartedly in academic challenges, extracurricular projects, and community initiatives.
Now Carmen Paola is leading a social project to help younger children gain confidence with schoolwork and strengthen their reading and writing skills. True to her spirit, she’s using what she’s learned to uplift her community because for her, education isn’t just personal, it ripples outward.
Her dream? To study tourism, travel the world, and remember Higuera Blanca and Punta de Mita—places that are very special to her— as the soil that made everything possible.
Carmen Paola’s story reminds us of why we do what we do. Congratulations, Carmen Paola, on your success!
