My name is Jacob, and i am a 20 year old junior here at Cabrillo college. I was born in San Jose, but Ive lived in Santa Cruz for the majority of my life. if i could say one thing about myself is that i'm probably as easy going as it gets. maybe too easy going sometimes ( because it has got me into a bit of trouble) but I'm working on it. Growing up i lived with my mom, my step dad, and my two younger siblings who mean the world to me. When i was younger i had always wanted an older brother, so it was really important to me to be the best older brother that i could be. later i realized that working with kids was one if the few things that i was good at. so for the past two and a half years ive been working for a non profit organization providing after school care in Santa Cruz county. I could honestly say i think i have the best job ever!! I get paid to play games with kids all day, and be an older brother to 80 plus kids! I love it.
I think i have several gifts to bring to this classroom. having been a wrestler for seven years, team captain of a team for two, and the league champion my senior year. I'm confident in saying that i am a good leader, and have a good work ethic. I also have a certain philosophy of making school fun by being enthusiastic, this may be little hard for me in a morning class, but ill try not to disappoint. Also i have no problem speaking in public, or reading aloud. In fact i rather enjoy it.
Hi Jacob
ReplyDeleteI was born in San Jose as well! How do you like living in Santa Cruz? It is fascinating how you have been involved with a non profit organization for so long! You can't find many people who are willing to devote their time to help others for no profit!
I have to admit, I love living in Santa Cruz, the places the people, its as unique as it gets. I'm glad you like what i do as well! I got hired right when i turned 18 ( even though they really weren't supposed to since i hadn't had any schooling) and Ive fallen in love with every one of my kids! although, bit of a confection, even though its a non profit organization, i still get paid!
