Anthony Bastien: An Introduction

Hey fellow classmates, my name is Anthony Bastien. My preferred pronouns are he, him, and his. I was born in Brooklyn, NY, and I have lived there for my entire life. I currently live in the Canarsie section of Brooklyn. Last year, I matriculated at City Tech in pursuit of a degree in Nursing. I am a part time student because I work full time at NYU Langone. This is my first asynchronous class, and I’m looking forward to gaining a deeper understand of English with you all.

I do not have an absolute favorite author. However, I have been captivated by the writing style of Zora Neale Hurston lately. I’ve purchased more of her books and I look forward to reading them during my next vacation. When I’m not at work, or completing school work, you can find me in the kitchen perfecting my tomato sauce or practicing new techniques. I also enjoy exercising outdoors, hiking, cycling, and dancing.
