Hey everyone, my name is Julio and I’m a computer engineering major. I’m a transfer student from a two year college which I only ended up going to because I wasn’t sure what I wanted as my major but after some time and passionate professors I ended up going with Comp Engineering. I’m currently taking this and linear algebra as my last math classes (I hope) because in all honesty I just want to get them all done with. I’m currently working for the City part time during the semester and full time in between, my hope is to start my career with them post graduation although I might just lose my job before the semester even ends thanks to budget cuts and the Rona. On the other hand my animal crossing village is looking extra clean thanks to the extra free time most of us got during all this and my favorite animal is a black panther, I promise it was before the movie came out.

• I’m a Mechanical Engineering Technology major because I have no other choice now that interests me, used to be more excited with STEM but bad learning experiences and worrying about money are draining…
• I prefer not to take more math classes but I might have to take Linear Algebra. It’s not that I don’t like math; I simply don’t like the pressure of (any) classes.
• My goal after graduating from CityTech is to find a stable job that I can keep for at least five years.
• Only thing I’m proud of is my self-proclaimed title of “potato”, and I’m particularly “good” at not being good at anything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

• This lockdown and pandemic has taught me that CUNY should reduce tuition costs for online classes. (Reallocate funds from a certain institution to CUNY if ever)
