Hi, My name is Nada. My story started when I was 4 years old.  My parents decided to move to the states in hopes of a better life for our family. We’ve been living in Brooklyn, NY ever since. Since high school, I knew that I wanted to work in a hospital. Even though I spent most of my childhood in hospitals which should result in me hating them, I want to help people the same way I was helped.  This is why my major is Nursing. My favorite hobby would have to be painting. (I’m not any good at it but I love doing it ). One of the many things I enjoy most is romanticizing my life through videos. I love making videos of little things happening around me and living in the moment.

This is a photo of my cat, Luna. I got Luna 6 months ago after a whole lot of begging. My mom did not approve of Luna at first, neither did my dad. when I first got her, I hid her from my parents for a week. She stayed in my room until one night she was being fussy and meowing. She woke my parents up and I was caught. They love her more than me now. She hates affection but the cute aggression in me kicks her in the butt sometimes.

Hello guys, My name is Brenda Almonte. This is my first semester at city tech, I just transferred from BMCC. I want to be an ultrasound tech, it is something that caught my attention. Since I was younger I have enjoyed spending time with babies and taking care of them. I helped out in a daycare for about two years. In my spare time, I like spending time with friends, going out, trying new food, and exploring places I have not been to before. I also like to work out, it is therapy for me and something that calms me down when I’m in a bad place. I wish good luck to everyone and hopefully, this semester will be better for us all!

This a picture of my homeland, Dominican Republic, Las terrenas.  This was in january when i took a trip with my family for 3 weeks.

I love my homeland and im proud to be Dominican!

Hi my name is Lorince Pierre-Louis and this is my second year in City Tech. I go by the pronouns he/him/his. I’m Haitian and I was born and reside in Queens, New York. My major is Computer Engineering as my academic interests include improving my Math and Computer Skills, Software Engineering, Networking, Hardware Engineering, and graduating college with a Bachelor’s degree. My hobbies include exercising, watching and playing sports mainly basketball and football. I also enjoy watching anime and playing video games. It feels refreshing to be able to go back to college again even though its part in person and online, as we all know with the current situation the world is in right now.

The picture that I’ve chosen is a picture of Kobe Bryant. Kobe is no longer with us but he is one my favorite basketball players that grew up watching. Kobe Bryant was a very hard worker as he was one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Whenever I watched him play my eyes we’re glued to the television screen as it was focused on that and nothing else. Kobe’s modus operandi was Mamba Mentality as he was all about focusing on the process and trusting in the hard work when it mattered the most. This something that I also believe in and take into heart as I go through life. Kobe Bryant is someone who I will never forget and will always have a special place in my heart.
