 UPDATE January 2024

My first year at U Va (University of Virginia) was a great one. I made a lot of friends and gained many new experiences. One of my favorite moments was attending an Alpha probate and seeing one of my hallmates being revealed. I also enjoyed going to play basketball or uno with my roommate. Most importantly I had a successful academic year passing my classes with As & high Bs, and I hope to continue that in the next semester. This summer I’ve been cutting grass and doing outdoor work for my business, JAPOS. I’ve also been working on my Java skills for the upcoming semester. Then spending time with my little brother as much as I can before it’s time to go back to school. Lastly, some of my future plans involve getting tech certifications and doing an internship to get myself in the right direction for post-graduation.”
