Autobiography
I am an 18 year old young man living in Boston. I was born and raised in
Boston. I have been to a few other states including Florida, Maine, Alabama,
Washington, and New York. After visiting these states, I realized how much I love
Boston. I love the reliable transportation, the tight knit communities, and the ease
of navigating the city. Everything you could possibly want is at your fingertips.
Boston is my home. Although I adore Boston, there are aspects of my city that
could be improved such as the educational organization.
My educational journey was very complex. I have attended six different
schools all together: Boston Renaissance Charter School, Williams E. Russell
Elementary School, Paul A. Dever Public School, Smith Leadership Academy,
Boston Collegiate Charter School and Greater Egleston High School. I also
participated in many different sports including swimming, basketball, karate, and
track. Although I always participated in the school communities, it was difficult to
constantly be in a state of transition. I was always the new student adjusting to a
new school and new friends.
experiences. Despite my adjustment to the new school culture, I have been able to
thrive academically and grow as a person. My academic success is evident
through my scholastic achievement, which has made me the Valedictorian of the
GEHSs graduating class of 2015.
In September, I will be attending Suffolk University and pursing a
bachelors degree in Computer Science. I received two scholarships: The City of
Boston Scholarship and The Achievers Grant from Suffolk University. As a child,
I was always fascinated by technological advances. In college, I will be able to
take my lifelong love of technology to the next level. I am very excited for the
next step in my life. My time at Greater Egleston High School has prepared me to
tackle any obstacle I may face in college.
