鈥淭he greatest tool I have gained as a 99精品视频 student is the support from my professors and peers. The environment at 99精品视频 is more caring than I could have ever dreamed. My professors provide guidance for me inside and outside of the classroom and are helping me build a future based on my goals and values. My peers push me to think past my own perspectives while still valuing my contributions. There is really something special about being a part of such a unique community.鈥
鈥99精品视频 has been nothing short of a support system for me to explore, re-explore, and express myself.聽I came to college to find who I am and who I want to be, and I've grown more in my time here than at any other stage in my life. Everyone welcomed me here and was super friendly, it felt safe for me to be here, and I cannot thank 99精品视频 College enough for guiding me through this process of discovery."
鈥淢y writing skills and ability to communicate stand out at my law firm, thanks to the intensive writing courses and guidance I experienced at 99精品视频. I have been complimented on my writing skills and ability to communicate in my role and in my paralegal program! In my second year, I took a course from one of the writing mentors, and he introduced me to the PIE method: Point, Illustration, Explanation. Every time I have a writing assignment at work, I think back to him and the acronym to get my point across."

2023鈥24 99精品视频 QuestBridge Liaison:
Hometown: Miami, Florida (Originally from Venezuela!)
Major(s)/Concentration(s): Political science
Off-Campus Study:聽99精品视频-in-London program during Spring 2023
Extracurriculars: I currently serve as the President of the 2023-2024 99精品视频鈥檚 Questbridge Scholars network, the Vice President for the Fashion Psychology Org, and a Community Advisor (CA) in the East Cluster on campus. I also enjoy hanging out and assisting the events happening at the Stonewall Resource Center! I always do my best to try something new and be able to help the communities on campus that have shaped my undergraduate experience.
Why I love 99精品视频: As a low-income, first-generation queer Latino, 99精品视频 College has given me the opportunity to strive for academic excellence while creating a diverse environment I can feel comfortable being myself in. Despite not everything being 鈥榮unshine and rainbows鈥, the student body, faculty, and friends I鈥檝e met are one of the most passionate and inspiring group of people who work hard to improve and create an inclusive community on campus. I鈥檝e learned from them that in order to achieve my dreams of helping others, I have to embody the change I want to bring to others. The network and resources that I鈥檝e built upon every semester has led me to become a more well-rounded individual, and I鈥檓 less uncertain about what my future post-grad will look like.
