My name is Alexander Hakimi. I am 18 going on 19 from Great Neck, Ny. I love to learn. I think it is important to be educated in order to challenge other people’s ideas. I like to travel; I’ve been to Miami, D.C., Vermont, Massachusetts, Italy, Israel, and California. Last year I wanted to pursue a career in hotel maangement but now my aspirations are shifting. I am the second of four siblings, an older sister and two younger brothers. My friends always tell me I’m the funniest person but I can also be shy around people. I love to ski and go to the beach. In September, I went to the U.S. Open and am officially obsessed with going. I didn’t realize how fun watching a tennis game could be. I love social media. Twitter truly changed my life! I Love the instant spread of information and quick communication. I am a major music junkie; I am Lady Gaga’s biggest fan. Her msuic and story liberate me from any sense of rejection. I am interested in a career in the music business.
