I am a returning student at Queensborough Community College and live with my parents in Queens, NY. I also grew up here. My parents are from Brazil and we speak the equivalent of Spanglish except it's Portuguese and English. This spring I interned to promote higher education affordability and accessibility, and participated in a fellowship on exploring and undoing bias. My intention is to get a masters in social work and use it to do some good for others.
