Hello everyone, I’m Jessica, but I prefer Jessi. My pronouns are She/Her. When I was 18, I moved to New York City from North Carolina. Although it was scary to be here alone I do not regret making this decision at this young age. I have learned so much and experienced many cultures in NYC that are rare in other cities in the U.S. which have sparked my love for discovering and traveling to new countries. I live in Queens and love living here at the moment. I originally wanted to be a dental hygienist. I have been in the dental field for about 8 years as a dental assistant, but the pandemic made me realize that being in the health field was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I switched my major for a bachelor’s in Emerging Media Technology in Computation Concentration. Taking classes in my major gives me an opportunity to learn something new every day. It feels like I’ve been in school forever, but I’m hoping to graduate next year. Some of my hobbies include reading, working out, swimming, and playing with my two dogs. I absolutely enjoy traveling the world. In my travels, I’ve been to 10 countries, and Turks and Caicos Island is one of my favorites. Travel and underwater diving are my passions. I’m a certified scuba diver and hope to keep doing both.

This picture shows my two beautiful Boston Terriers. The male’s name is Zero and the female’s name is Una. Zero is 7 years old and still acts like a puppy. He is super special to me. I got him during the time my grandmother passed and he has been comforting me ever since. Una is a year old and full of energy. I decided to get Una to give Zero some company because it would break my heart every time I had to leave him home alone. Having both of them has been two of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. Thanks for reading my introduction, and I hope everyone has a great semester.

Greetings, everyone! I trust you’re all doing splendidly. I’m Mumin Khan—a junior pursuing a major in Information Technology. Feel free to refer to me with he/him pronouns. While I am from the vibrant borough of the Bronx, my ethnic roots trace back to Bangladesh. Balancing my full-time studies, I also engage in part-time work as a sales specialist at Bloomingdale’s. One thing to know about me is that I am more of a cat person than a dog.

Throughout this year, a substantial portion of my time has been wholeheartedly dedicated to the gym, and the results have been nothing short of remarkable. Consistently, for the past seven months, I’ve immersed myself in the world of fitness, and the progress I’ve made is a testament to my commitment. The sight of the squat machine, bench press, and various other equipment in the picture brings to life the countless hours I’ve spent honing my strength and pushing my limits. It’s become a fulfilling routine that I eagerly embrace five days a week. The joy I derive from these sessions is unparalleled, as they not only contribute to my physical well-being but also offer a mental and emotional recharge that sets the tone for the rest of my day. The journey has been challenging yet immensely gratifying, and I’m excited to continue this transformative path in the days ahead.

Hello everyone,

My name is Waleed Yahya , pronouns he/him. I’m from YEMEN. Currently living in Brooklyn. My current major is health science, my goal is to become a radiologist technologist. Hopefully after getting my degree in health science I’ll be applying to the radiology program. Which one of my cousins graduated from last year, which got me more interested  about rad tech and confidence to move on forward with my goal. My favorite sport is soccer I love playing it with my cousins and friends. I love going on trips to different places with friends and family.

idk why the picture is kinda blurry but i took this picture at a trip my friends and i went to the poconos mountains. it was one of the best trips i ever went to because it was during the winter and we had so much fun playing with the snow and the hot tub in the middle of the night. we stayed there four 3 days, went to different places and restaurants.

thanks for reading, wish everyone the best during this semester.
