Hey there, my name is Armand Jayson Caguete, and I am an aspiring data analyst.
My family and I come from the Philippines so it’s pretty much in the culture to name children with two first names. You can call me Jay for short so you don’t have to worry about picking between the two, and it’s also just one syllable so it’s probably one of the easiest names to remember. I am turning 22 this year, but have only been living in New York for almost 3 years now. This is my first semester at Baruch as a transfer student majoring in Computer Information Systems specializing in Data Analytics, and plan to attend NYU after I graduate for a Master’s degree in Information Systems. Aside from my love for all things tech, I also have a passion for photography. I still consider myself an amateur, but I do try to improve my work with every picture I take. I also consider it as a backup plan, in case my career in the ever-growing field of technology plan goes awry. Aside from that, I also love to draw using the traditional technique of pencil and paper, play the guitar, and I am a big fan of TV series. My favorites include Scorpion, Sherlock, Supernatural, Vikings, and Friends. I also like to travel, and the number one destination I want to go to but still haven’t is Europe, especially Paris and the UK. Most of the traveling I have done in the past is explore the hundreds of islands of my home country, but I have also been to other countries such as Dubai and Hong Kong. I also (learned to) love math since it’s pretty much a staple in learning how to write code and read machine language. Participating vocally in class isn’t really the sharpest tool in my shed, so I am looking forward to trying for the rest of the semester.
