My name is Karla and my pronouns are she/her. Before coming to Baruch I was thinking of majoring in finance but now Im thinking of majoring in marketing. Some of my favorite sports include volleyball and tennis. I also like watching soccer games whether it’d be on tv or at the pier’s that are by the Brooklyn bridge. Some other things that I like include Italian food but sometimes I’m picky when it comes to trying new foods. I consider myself as a helpful person because I like doing acts of service and just helping in any way I can. I would also say that I’m an introvert because I’m somewhat social and other times I’m not. A favorite hobby of mine happens to be drawing/painting because it dates back to the second grade when I discovered an interest in art. It’s always been a way in which I am able to engage with my creative side and on top of that I would find it stress relieving. Throughout my years in High school I also participated in the art program which was something I liked due to the many different projects that were assigned to us such as still-lifes, self portraits, landscape paintings..etc. During my free time I like to go out with my friends to restaurants in the city or I would also spend some quality time with my pet cockatiel’s that I’ve had almost a little over a year now…One of them is named “Capri”, and I’m very glad I decided to get him when he was just three weeks old because he keeps me company and he’s made me realize how much I should cherish my loved ones and the many things that life has to offer. The picture below is Capri and he’s going to be two by the month of April next year.
