OBJECTIVE ....
Being raised in an urban setting I have a strong desire to help others whom have
experienced the same as me. I have a vision of eradicating social injustices as well as
promoting social justice. I will be a strong vehicle of reasoning and a listening ear to give
individuals from marginalized communities a different perspective of how to achieve their
goals in being successful in future endeavors.
