My name is Ralph Mizrahi and I am currently 18 years old. I am from Brooklyn and attended Magen David Yeshivah my whole life. I am one of 5 children, two older siblings and two younger siblings. My transition from elementary school to high-school was similar to my current transition from high-school to college. I am always looking to learn new things and so I view these opportunities as new ways to learn about myself and to learn about others. I am excited to be attending Baruch so I can experience what life is like in the real world.
Throughout my life I was always a fan of playing and watching sports. I was a member of the softball team all 4 years of high school. I also love to play football, tennis, and basketball. Some of the teams I love to watch are the New York Football Giants, the New York Yankees, and the Brooklyn Nets. In my four years in high-school, I was also very involved in doing community work. This past summer alone, I organized two major fundraisers for two community organizations. One organization gives food to the poor, while the other covers everything from having a food pantry to dealing with cancer patients. I also enjoy reading books, specifically dealing with business and political affairs.
As a student in Baruch, I want to amass as much knowledge as possible and create a network of people that I can connect with in the future. My hopes for the first semester are really to meet new people and maintain my 4.0 GPA!
