Hello,
My name is Stefany Bekkerman and I am eighteen years old. I was born in Ukraine and came here with my family when I was two years old. I have been living in New York ever since I came here. No, I don’t remember anything from the old country but I still speak Russian because it was very important for my parents to know my native language. Watching my parents trying to make it here in America has definatly inspired me and taught me alot about hard work, dedication and motivation. I hope that these very traits will help me to succeed here in Baruch. My three primary concerns will be to manage time with school work and my part time job, and still maintain a high average. This is the major difference between college and highschool, because you have to be organized and responsible yourself. There will be no one there to remind you to have an assignment done by the due date. Therefore my first year will change me by time management skills, my responsibilities and work ethic. Later on my concern will be to find an internship that I will be interested in, be good at, and that will lead me to a prosperous and beneficial career.
