Growing up in New Haven, Connecticut there weren’t big mansions, people with expensive cars, nor any sign of wealth .It’s a small city filled with homeless people, violence and poor neighborhoods that made me into the person I am today. A city so small you see the same people everyday. The neighborhood I grew up in you see homeless people on the street asking for change, mothers shedding tears over the lost of their children, children wearing the same clothes due to their family income, and teenagers hanging in the streets late at night. Living in this environment influenced me to become the person I am today. Hard working, tenacious, and humble.
