The Combs-Hurtado sisters
From a story by Kim Delker with UNM News: "Athena and Maya Combs-Hurtado have a lot in common. They have the same friends, are interested in the same activities, and often travel together. The twins, born in Venezuela but raised in Albuquerque, now have one more thing they share: they are both graduating from the University of New Mexico this fall with bachelor’s degrees in mechanical engineering."
