Hello!

Hi! My name is John Ortiz. I transferred from Binghamton University. This is my first semester at Baruch College. Like most of you, my major is finance and investments. I am also a pre-med student. I was born in the Dominican Republic but I grow up here in Manhattan. I finished my last two years of high school in the Dominican Republic at a school called “El Dominico Americano” (Class of 2007); It was awesome, imagine “senior skip day” at a beach resort! I am known as the “techie” of my family. For those of you who do not know what a techie is, a techie is a person who is good with manipulating technical gadgets such as computers, cellphones, etc. My favorite class thus far would have to be Cell molecular biology but I am growing fond of this class so we will see by the end of this semester.

A video that would pretty much sum me up would be this one… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mq2Bt0C4ZeI

But quite frankly, I would like to be more like this guy… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAYL5H46QnQ
