As a mother and computer Science student at Hostos Community College, I juggle the responsibilities of parenting while pursuing my passion for technology. Balancing school, family, and personal growth isn't always easy, but I'm determined to create a better future for myself and my child. Studying computer science challenges me to think critically and solve problems, skills that I know will open doors in the tech industry. Despite the obstacles, I stay focused, pushing forward with perseverance and a clear vision of my goals.

I have helped with almost 10 courses as a Perr Leader through Supplemental Instruction. Each course has been different, but I honestly learned so much. I appreciate the connections with the students and watching them master the material they were initially found challenging.

Juan Carlos Perez
Hi, my name is Juan-Carlos but I prefer to go by JC. My parents are from Puerto Rico, but I was born and raised in NY. I went to Bronx Highschool of Science and then studied English and Philosophy at Lehman College. My parents had a Psychology and Sociology background so ever since I was a little boy I was exposed to and fascinated by concepts of Psychology and human behavior. My Google feed consistently consists of articles on Nutrition Science, Space news, Psychology and advances in Neuroscience.

Carmen Julia Roque
I am a student in the area of mathematics and I wish to be a teacher in the same area in the future. I am Dominican, which means that I speak both Spanish and English. I plan to specialize in the future in the area of Arithmetic, Algebra and Trigonometry. The reason why I am a Peer Leader is because I like to be a bridge of knowledge and help for students.
 
 
Kiara Saint-Hilaire
I’m a 21-year-old nursing student who’s always up for meeting new people and trying new things. I'm half Dominican and half- American, and I love embracing both cultures and connecting with different perspectives. I have a work-study job in behavioral and social sciences, which keeps things interesting and helps me learn more about people. When I’m not studying or working, you’ll probably find me outside since I’m super outgoing and always down for an adventure!
