Being a Christian has without a doubt shaped who I am. Jesus died for our sins even though we didn’t deserve it. His radical self-sacrificing love makes me desire to do something bigger in this life and to love others unconditionally as well.

Without a doubt, being the only boy in a family of 6 has also influenced who I am. My father, especially, has been a role model in my life and with him working in Finance, I am leaning towards that major. Being the only boy, I try to be assertive and be a good role model for my younger siblings.

I hope that in Baruch College, I will find my career path and learn more about this world and the City that I live in. Business is such a large field so as I begin to know more about all it’s different parts, I hope to be drawn to a specific division of Business. I also expect to learn more about this City. Before coming to Baruch, I could probably count the number of times I have been to the city with my fingers. This city has so many things to offer besides food and I hope to learn more about them.

Lastly, I hope to make long-lasting relationships here. I have already begun to love the people in Baruch College. I am so fortunate to meet my professors, my fellow scholars, Mr. Medina, Crystal and many more. I look forward to what the next 4 years will bring.
