Dear Members of Eng2575(d460)
I hope you all are doing well and I was very excited to see most of you on the first day of our class. As we all know since the outbreak of covid-19, our class has changed to remote learning and we didn’t get an opportunity to get to know each other. So, today I would like to let you know more about myself and my dream goal. My name is Sakuna Rai. I was born and raised on the foothill of the Himalayas, Nepal. I came to the US in 2010 to realize the American dream for me and for my family. Actually, I won the diversity visa luckily in 2010 to get into the land of opportunity, USA.Â
Before coming to the US, I was a high school mathematics teacher. I love math playing around with the numbers, theories, equations, formulas and its algorithms. As an ardent believer in science and technology, I always wanted to pursue a degree pertaining to this field, but due to various unforeseen circumstances, I couldn’t join college right away. As the popular adage goes, “better late than never”, finally after 7 years of gap I’ve returned to college to translate my passion to my profession.
 I am currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Computer System with a software development track in New York City College of Technology, CUNY. As every software developer has a dream of working in one of the most reputed companies like MAANG, my greatest goal after graduation is also to crack the MAANG interview. For this, I have to prepare myself by consistently focusing on studying data structure and algorithms, improving my problem-solving skills and much more. Besides these things, I love playing soccer and watching real based story movies in different languages with the help of subtitles.
Whenever someone talks about writing in English, it is always difficult for me to digest. But I have no choice left and I know that I must have to communicate either in a written or verbal form with a wide range of audience that are less or more knowledgeable in specific subjects. So, I believe that taking this English class will surely help me to achieve those skills to address such an ambiguity.Â
Sincerely,
Sakuna Rai
