Natalia is currently pursuing her Law Degree (LL.B.) at Universidad de Costa Rica and, simultaneously, a Bachelor’s degree in Public Accounting at the same institution— a discipline she considers a strategic complement to her legal education, particularly in the field of commercial law. Her academic interests focus primarily on civil and corporate law, areas in which both programs intersect and strengthen her professional profile.
In April 2024, she completed a two-month internship at Vanguardia Legal, an experience that allowed her to engage in the practical work of the firm and acquire initial knowledge in notarial law. This learning was further reinforced in September of the same year, when she formally joined the team as an administrative assistant, a role in which she has deepened her understanding of notarial procedures and accounting tasks.
Natalia also completed a workshop-course in computer science with an emphasis on word-processing tools—an essential skill for document preparation and management within the firm.
Additionally, she is currently completing her legal clinic practice through the Universidad de Costa Rica at the Defensoría de los Habitantes (Ombudsman), where she assists in cases related to family law and certain civil matters. Her responsibilities include drafting legal documents, attending hearings, and managing case files—experience that has enriched her legal reasoning and strengthened her practical skills.
Natalia is distinguished by her ability to work collaboratively, her quick learning capacity, and her efficiency in high-demand environments. Her proactive attitude and aptitude for working under pressure contribute significantly to the firm’s internal processes.
