Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Society in general:
You're just an immigrant kid from the Bronx! Why don't you think of construction or something you can do with your hands instead?
How I responded:
Your background should only fuel your desire to succeed in life. Never allow any obstacle, or another person, to keep you from achieving your dreams. Dream BIG and set goals.
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
My parents worked in factories in the 90s and we were a family of five: 3 brothers and 2 sisters. I was determined to graduate college but my parents couldn't afford it. I worked closely with counselors to make sure I took advantage of any financial aid.
