Hi my name is Kenet Ruano but you guys can call me Kenny and I love playing soccer. I'm from Guatemala but I was born and raised in Long Island. I value time since in anything we do or we will do will concern time in all aspects. My major is forensic psychology but I will eventually switch that up to just psychology since I want to do psychotherapy in the future. My interests are passive income. Which is why I will get into real estate soon. Also I would love to learn to read and write in a faster pace and skilled way.

My name is Nick Sanders and I'm from Long Island. My major at John Jay is Fire and Emergency Services and I haven't met anyone else with the same major. My hobbies include climbing things, playing ultimate frisbee, and Scouting (I'm an Eagle Scout). My talents include: having allergies, sleeping, and forgetting to do homework. I am not 100% sure what career path I want to take, but I like to help people and protect them from loss. I look forward to my time in this class and at John Jay and am excited for what's to come.

Hello! My name is Arlene and I'm from Queens. I was born here in New York but my whole family is from Hong Kong. I value trust and honesty within my friends. My major is Computer Science and I choose this because I have always had an interest in computers and how they work. I don't exactly know what kind of job I want in the future but I do know that I would want it to involve me interacting with people. A fun fact about me is that I know how to shoot a gun and that I work for the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation. Another fun fact would be that I have met many Youtubers and a few celebrities. I enjoy singing and just spending quality time with my friends. I hope that throughout this class and throughout this semester I would be able to grow and make new friends.

Hi everyone!! My name is Eduardo and I'm from The Bronx. I was born in Dominican Republic and came to New York at the age of 6. The thing that I value the most is honesty.  I selected Criminal Justice (B.S) as my major. I want to become part of the NYPD after graduating college. I would also like to further my education and get a Master's degree in order to achieve a higher ranking. I chose to go come to John Jay since it's  the best college for Criminal Justice.  During my free time, I love to go out for a run/jog, go to the gym and workout with my friends. This ENG 101 class will most definitely be the first English class that I'm excited to go to.

Hello my name is Connor. I am from Wantagh, NY (a small town in Nassau county on Long Island). I chose John Jay for a few reasons. One being the location, where else can you get an education at one of the top schools in the country for what you wish to study and live in one of the most popular cities in the world. Another reason I chose John Jay was my major which is Fraud Examination and Financial Forensics. This is a tough major to find as very few schools offer this but I am lucky to have found a school that offers it and has a good program. After John Jay I want pursue a career as a Forensic Accountant for the FBI. A couple of other quick fun facts, in high school I played volleyball, basketball and baseball, my high school baseball team won the state championship my junior year. I am currently on the baseball team here at John Jay and I love to travel and hope to do more of it after I am done with college.

My name is Andie Lau, I am born and raised in Brooklyn New York. I am Chinese but everyone on my mom’s side is from the Dominican Republic. My major that I selected for now is computer science. Since the world is surrounded by technology I feel doing computers would be a strong route to take. Though I am not great with technology myself but with practice one will learn the most. I value the trust in my friends because without them I wouldn’t know where I would be today. My favorite sport to play is basketball and it has been a hobby I did since I was young.

Hello everyone! I am Daniella, and you can all call me whatever y'all like it does not really matter to me. As you may have heard in class I was born in Ukraine. However, I was born in a little farming village in the mountains that is more closer to Hungary than the capital of Ukraine. As such, the Ukrainian I speak isn't well recognized as the language that is spoken in the major cities is more Russian in a sense. What else is there to know, I can speak 3 languages (Ukrainian, Russian, and of course English) my first pet was a chicken ( I grew up on a farm). A little fun fact that I love sharing was that on one of my government documents I had when I was younger had my sex changed. This isn't even the best part yet, my mom hadn't noticed this change until we went to the airport and the security guard was staring at me and finally decided to ask my mom why her son was wearing a dress. Now to get to the serious stuff, I of course value my family for everything they have done for me to be the first generation in my family to attend college. I also value my two dogs which are a Pomeranian and Toy Poodle (the Pomeranian is named Lola and the Toy Poodle is Kino). My major is sociology because it seemed interesting at the time however, I feel that I will change it the near future.

Hey everyone! My name is Natasha and i'm from Brooklyn, NY. I am Surinamese, for those of you that don't know Suriname is this small country in South America with Indian and European roots. No one really knows about it and there really isn't much information to give. My major is Criminal Justice and i hope one day i can be a detective in the NYPD. Although I have chosen a pretty serious future ahead of me, I love musical theatre and acting! I've acted in three school plays, two of them where I played one of the main characters. I like to really try everything and so my senior year had me strung up as President, a thespian, a soccer player, an ambassador, a photographer, yearbook editor and so much more. I do like writing and i usually have no problems coming up with ideas of what write about . I value my family because they are the ones who raised me and taught me to be the best me i could be. I hope to get to know you guys this year!
