Hello! My name is Juan Vela, I would like to be addressed as He/him/his. I am born and raised in Brooklyn New York. My major in city tech is Emerging Media Technology. Some of my hobbies would be playing soccer and also taking pictures because I’m really into photography and its something I want to try to do on the side if I can get a career off of it in the future.

This is a picture I took of the city, looking at this picture makes me feel really calming because of the setting how the colors look and the feeling it gives off. I am really happy that this picture did not need any sort of editing to look nice and it is all natural lighting.  This is New York City, This is the city I grew up in.

Hi guys, my name is Hailey Lopez. My pronouns are she/her. My ethnicity is Puerto Rican and Ecuadorian, I was born and raised in Williamsburg New York, and I am the first in my family to go to college. Somethings I like to do on my free time would have to be to go exploring seeing new places and spending time with friends and family. I joined City Tech to study in the Architectural Technology field. I have experience in this field being that my High School was also a study in this field which is cool. Beginning college is both exciting and a little scary. It’s exciting because I get to continuing to expand my knowledge on Architecture. But feels like something that I have been saying for the longest and am finally able to do. I hope to learn a lot from all my professors and make great connections with my peers.

One place that is meaningful to me would have to be my middle school although it was a long time ago it was when I figured out who I was and what I wanted to do in life. I had great connections with people that are still in my life to this day and every time I think about a calm time period in my life I am always found back to those years. I made the most impressionable memories of my life there.
