KNOW THIS ABOUT ME:
Family is my life, without them I don’t know where I would be today. I am a very confident person, and always try to keep a positive mental attitude in everything I do. I enjoy my life and cannot wait to see where it takes me.

IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME:
I would go back to when my dad was a teenager and spend everyday with him to see how it was when he was growing up and see what he has been through. My father is my biggest role model and I think it would be interesting to see how things were in his time.

THREE PEOPLE I WOULD LIKE TO MEET:
Derek Jeter, because he is one of the most well respected players in the MLB and a true class act. Martin Scorsese, he is one of my favorite directors of all time and I would like to talk to him and see how he came up with the interesting ideas for his films. Joe Pesci, of all the films I have seen him in, he has true talent.

MY FUTURE PLANS ARE:
Graduate JWU with my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, and then find a temporary job to save up to travel the country with a couple friends.

WHY I WANT TO BE A BROTHER OF TAU EPSILON PHI FRATERNITY:
I want to be a part of Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity because the Brothers are like a second family. I know that when I am home I have another family in Providence. I respect the ideals of TEP and I feel that it will allow me to better myself as an individual.

Two words that I can describe my self with are humble and patient. I am kind to all that I have come across and I care about my love ones and friends. Coming from a family of 14, I have 11 siblings and I am the second oldest and the first to leave home. My siblings look up to me and when I have my degree I will help my brothers and sisters so that they can do the same.

IF I COULD GO BACK IN TIME:
I would have told myself that I could do it, to not have been negative and to go pass my limits.

THREE PEOPLE I WOULD LIKE TO MEET:
My grand parents because I have never met them, Craig Bartlett the program director of my favorite cartoon Hey Arnold because I find it interesting how he wrote the story lines for the show, and Edwin Catmull the Co-Founder and President of Pixar because I like all of their films.

MY FUTURE PLANS ARE:
I can see my self being an art director of a design department doing what I love the most, sharing my life with a wonderful family and a wife who loves me.

WHY I WANT TO BE A BROTHER OF TAU EPSILON PHI FRATERNITY:
I want to be a Brother of Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity because for a long time I always was a shy kid, I want to come out of my shell, to be more assertive, and put my foot down and say no. I believe this Fraternity can help me show my true colors.
