Hi everyone! My name is Taramattie but you can call me Tara. I was born and raised in Guyana. I came to America in the late 80’s. I live in Queens, NYC. I found out about City Tech through my daughter because she is a City Tech alumni. That is what sparked my interest in going back to school. I am currently a paraprofessional in DOE, and looking into majoring in Liberal Arts or Education. I enjoy reading.

The picture I have added is the smoke due to the Canadian wildfires. I found this fascinating because I hadn’t seen anything like it before. I did not expect the air quality to be so horrible.
