My name is Damien Balchand and I live in Ozone Park, Queens. I was born in New York, but I spent most of my childhood growing up in Guyana. Typically, I am a very calm and quiet, but once you really get to know me, I am really outgoing. I am extremely excited to be spending the next four years in Baruch College and pursuing my career. My intended is Accountancy, which I know is probably the most common one there is at Baruch. I am a very family oriented person, but also love to just hang out with my friends.
English and Writing has honestly not been one of my strengths throughout my middle and high school career. When taking English in high school, I wasn’t really excited to be taking that class and didn’t really look forward to it at all. However, I have a strong feeling that it will be much different entering college. Even though my intended major is accounting, I know that both English and Writing plays a massive role in the Business field. I am entering this class as a way to start over and rewrite my own history regarding English class in school.
