Marlene Becerra
I am currently a senior at LAUSD USC Media Arts & Engineering Magnet. I'm a very hard working student who enjoys facing challenges when they come my way. At the moment, I am taking many AP's and spending my free time taking part in extracurricular activities and volunteering. Im fluent in Spanish and have taken two years of Mandarin, having learned the basics. As of now, I plan to study early childhood special education, which is a new interest to me after I volunteered at a summer school where I worked with first grade students with moderate to severe health conditions. A goal I would like to achieve by the time I graduate is to continue to hold outstanding grades and get accepted into my dream schools. I plan on attending UCLA in the fall, and majoring in psychology.

SIDNEY FLORES |
My name is Sidney Flores. I am 14 years old. Currently I am a 10th grader at LAUSD/USC Media Arts and Engineering Magnet located in Los Angeles, California. As a student I’m very hard working and determined. I work extremely well in groups as I am very open minded and able to communicate and form different ideas. I enjoy learning and overall love to discover new and exciting information. I am extremely interested in psychology and hope to one day be a child psychologist. Though psychology is my main focus, I’d also love to study the arts in college as well. I also enjoy reading and spending time with my family. Another hobby of mine is music. I have a passion for not only discovering and researching new and different genres of music but I also play the bass in my freetime. One of my main goals as of now is to overall have a positive impact on my community.

SOPHIA SANCHEZ
I'm currently in 10th grade at LAUSD/USC Media Arts & Engineering Magnet. This school has helped me improve and develop a variety of skills such as speaking in public, working with a vast amount of people, and performing. I have learned many important skills from the people I have worked with and hope to showcase them in the future. I know I'm fairly young but I have goals that I plan to achieve. Some of these goals include learning more about different cultures and studying fashion. I've always been interested in other people's beliefs and their way of seeing life. I have a very open mind to other's ideas. Another interest of mine is how the world and people around me work, which is why I would like to study fashion. I also like fashion because of its design aspect and its influence on the world. My interests have encouraged me to learn more and work with new people.

SOMKENE OKWUEGO
I am currently a senior at LAUSD/USC Media Arts and Engineering Magnet high school. I would say that I am a very artistic and free spirited person. I am always in the mood to try out new things and create my own perspective on life. (Life is short why waste it!) All my life I have been surrounded by the arts, from visual to film and even acting. Even though the arts has taken a big part in my life it’s not my only main interest in life. Aside from the arts I am really into my academics because I believe that always comes first. In the future, I would love to become a Cardiac Surgeon. What sparked this interest was a combination of my interest in Human Health (biology) and Engineering. While doing engineering, I realized I like solving puzzles. However, in the midst of all, I grew a passion for health care as I like to help people. I grew this passion after assisting in Convalescent homes, rehabilitation centers, and in general hospitals. I decided that I wanted to combine both of my interest and I realized that being a surgeon is almost the same as being an engineer. So with doing careful research, I decided that a cardiac surgeon is the best occupation for me.
