Work Experience
Education
September 2012 - June 2015
Saint Peter’s Prep, Jersey City, NJ
Spent the majority of my high school career at this institution. The experience forced me to grow up and adjust to the real world fairly quickly. The experience showed me so much about myself that I originally wouldn’t have even considered a possibility.
August 2016- June 2016
Summit High School, Summit, NJ — High School Diploma
Summit High School taught me that the real world was approaching fast if you didn't have a plan you were going to struggle with Summit was a great experience I was able to showcase my athletic ability as well as meet a group of new friends. This experience also showed me how important adjusting to your surroundings is.

January 2017 - May 2019
Union County College, Cranford,NJ— Associates Degree
I transferred from Albright College because things did not go as planned nor was it the best fit. I have found a new home near family and “old stomping grounds”. Union County has given me the best opportunity to better myself and help out my family financially.
