career in biology in Peru and then I was
career in biology in Peru and then I was fortunate to come to the United States
fortunate to come to the United States
fortunate to come to the United States to continue my graduate studies and in
to continue my graduate studies and in
to continue my graduate studies and in my graduate studies they were focused on
my graduate studies they were focused on
my graduate studies they were focused on Plant Sciences
Plant Sciences
Plant Sciences so learn how plants function so I got a
so learn how plants function so I got a
so learn how plants function so I got a degree in plant physiology and learn how
degree in plant physiology and learn how
degree in plant physiology and learn how plants make all these chemicals so about
plants make all these chemicals so about
plants make all these chemicals so about 12 years ago
12 years ago
12 years ago there was a chemical that became very
there was a chemical that became very
there was a chemical that became very very popular in the news because it was
very popular in the news because it was
very popular in the news because it was associated with the health benefit of
associated with the health benefit of
associated with the health benefit of drinking red wine and he was pressing in
drinking red wine and he was pressing in
drinking red wine and he was pressing in the red wine because he was pressing in
the red wine because he was pressing in
the red wine because he was pressing in the grape but the GRA will only make
the grape but the GRA will only make
the grape but the GRA will only make this chemical when he was exposed to the
this chemical when he was exposed to the
this chemical when he was exposed to the fungus again this dress makes a grave to
fungus again this dress makes a grave to
fungus again this dress makes a grave to produce this chemical so this chemical
produce this chemical so this chemical
produce this chemical so this chemical got a lot of popularity because it was
got a lot of popularity because it was
got a lot of popularity because it was associated with potential health
associated with potential health
associated with potential health benefits and to humans and there was a
benefits and to humans and there was a
benefits and to humans and there was a really big need to make it an
really big need to make it an
really big need to make it an interesting this chemical was also
interesting this chemical was also
interesting this chemical was also produced in the peanut butter peanut
produced in the peanut butter peanut
produced in the peanut butter peanut only make this chemical when the peanut
only make this chemical when the peanut
only make this chemical when the peanut was attacked by the fungus so I decided
was attacked by the fungus so I decided
was attacked by the fungus so I decided what I can use to make a lot of this
what I can use to make a lot of this
what I can use to make a lot of this chemical so I do some of the strategies
chemical so I do some of the strategies
chemical so I do some of the strategies that I learn when I was in graduate
that I learn when I was in graduate
that I learn when I was in graduate school and I use just the roots of the
school and I use just the roots of the
school and I use just the roots of the peanuts so I use these roots to produce
peanuts so I use these roots to produce
peanuts so I use these roots to produce this chemical I was able to find that
this chemical I was able to find that
this chemical I was able to find that can make a lot of this chemical but in
can make a lot of this chemical but in
can make a lot of this chemical but in this process of looking for this
this process of looking for this
this process of looking for this objective that I have to make
objective that I have to make
objective that I have to make resveratrol I found there were some many
resveratrol I found there were some many
resveratrol I found there were some many other things that were present during
other things that were present during
other things that were present during this search and when I start exploring
this search and when I start exploring
this search and when I start exploring those other chemicals I found out that
those other chemicals I found out that
those other chemicals I found out that those other chemicals were even more
those other chemicals were even more
those other chemicals were even more important than my initial goal so all
important than my initial goal so all
important than my initial goal so all these other things that appear as a
these other things that appear as a
these other things that appear as a result of the stress having other
result of the stress having other
result of the stress having other anti-cancer properties other properties
anti-cancer properties other properties
anti-cancer properties other properties that have other benefit beneficial
that have other benefit beneficial
that have other benefit beneficial properties for human health so then I
properties for human health so then I
properties for human health so then I realized at the end all this chemistry
realized at the end all this chemistry
realized at the end all this chemistry that plan was producing respond to the
that plan was producing respond to the
that plan was producing respond to the stress have all these good health
stress have all these good health
stress have all these good health benefits for humans so again so what do
benefits for humans so again so what do
benefits for humans so again so what do I do with all my stress when I’m a
I do with all my stress when I’m a
I do with all my stress when I’m a stress I create music and what I would
stress I create music and what I would
stress I create music and what I would like to do today I would like to share
like to do today I would like to share
like to do today I would like to share with you something that I’ll create

so I never thought that when I was learning music when I was very little I
learning music when I was very little I
learning music when I was very little I was going to be able to create and
was going to be able to create and
was going to be able to create and compose music so what I want to leave

compose music so what I want to leave you with this message here is that
you with this message here is that
you with this message here is that sometimes you need to challenge yourself
sometimes you need to challenge yourself
sometimes you need to challenge yourself sometimes you have a passion most of us
sometimes you have a passion most of us
sometimes you have a passion most of us are going to be stressed at many parts
are going to be stressed at many parts
are going to be stressed at many parts in our life
in our life
in our life and you can channel that stress to

create something positive it could be
create something positive it could be whatever you do him painting writing you
whatever you do him painting writing you
whatever you do him painting writing you can transform that stress into something

initial goal now I was focusing creating
initial goal now I was focusing creating of looking for this chemical resveratrol
of looking for this chemical resveratrol
of looking for this chemical resveratrol but in my path for resveratrol I found
but in my path for resveratrol I found
but in my path for resveratrol I found all these other chemicals that have
all these other chemicals that have
all these other chemicals that have taken me to all these different
taken me to all these different
taken me to all these different directions and next time that you see a
directions and next time that you see a
directions and next time that you see a peanut I hope that you have more respect
peanut I hope that you have more respect
peanut I hope that you have more respect for the peanut because it may provide a
