What do you hope to get out of being an EOP/HEOP Ambassador?
I hope to strengthen and be in community with students that grew up in the neighborhoods I walk through daily. I take pride in being from the South Bronx, so helping other students get the support needed to succeed is important to me.
What advice do you have for first year students?
I'd advise all first year students to explore themselves. Time moves quickly, and the memories are what define your image of this place. Take a few abstract classes here or there.
What do you hope to do with your career in the future?
One of these days I'll find myself as a neurosurgeon. I enjoy medicine and science, so healthcare is where I plan to be.
What is a fun fact about yourself that most people do not know?
I can play the "Happy Birthday" song (black ppl version) on the trumpet!
