I was born on April 20, 2000, in the United States; however, I grew up in Mexico, my parents\u0027 country. I have two brothers and one sister. When I was 11 years old, my father died at the age of 38. My mother studied nursing. Right now, she is dedicated to administrating her own investment together with my brothers. Right now, I am pursuing my degree in biology, and I have plans to attend medical school. I am currently working at Robert Wood Jhonson University Hospital as a Clinical Care Technician. One of the things that I love to do is to play the piano and the guitar. I have for goal to be a neurosurgeon and practice that profession for my entire life. I decided to come to the United States to continue studying when I was 18 years old. Currently, I am living by myself; all my family is in Mexico. The most I remember when I was little is that I always aspire to be a great professional when I grow up. One of the achievements that I have reached is learning to speak English and finish high school. Since I was a child, I was very dedicated to my work and also helped my parents in the fields. We dedicated ourselves to livestock.\n\nMy parents emigrated to the United States in 1999 in Atlanta, where I was born, but then they decided to return to their country of nationality in 2005. It was a drastic change for me to adapt to another country; in a way, it made me sad to leave my friends. Even though I was a child, I had my friends.", "recorded on December 9, 2021" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "6:39 minute audio recording" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Middlesex College" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Edison, NJ" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Mixed Material" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ " This item is licensed with the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial No Derivative License.
