Jonathan Xique Hernandez

Majoring in Environmental Studies And Government
Lawrence University, Class of 2028
From Brooklyn, NY
A self-oriented scholar who looks to expand into the Environmental Field and lead through local efforts toward motivating the youth to get involved. I believe it takes a community to build a strong identity that can make an impact. Throughout my career, I have developed plenty of skills that make it possible to make an impact. Through the work of local organizations and dedicated groups, I have learned to: .Connect with peers of diverse backgrounds .Foster Team Spirit .Led through community efforts .Professional delivery presentations .Flexibly adapt to situations I believe in giving back to the community rather than pulling up the ladder behind me. It was due to the generosity of the community that I was able to get to where I am today. This looks like presenting as a panelist to prospective environmental high schools on how to get started in the field or reaching out to my middle school in East New York on how to make it beyond the city. Giving back to the community through your work will always be my mission's core. Professional Skills: Bilingual in Spanish and English | Environmental Stewardship | Video Editing | Excel | Graphic Design | Public Speaking | Report Writing
