I am Lesli Paz, and I am Mexican. I graduated from Newtown High School this year. I like to play sports, so I was part of the soccer and basketball team in my school. I can characterize myself as selfless because I like to help my community. I am part of Aspira, an organization of community service in New York. Aspira is a very important organization in my life, and it is my second year working with them. I had great experiences, I went to the Capitol in Albany and different colleges where I spoke with important people. Also I was part of different group to collect money and send this to South American countries. I like to do this because I have a lot friends and, we like to spend time with new people in the Community Service Center. When I worked with people of different countries, religion and culture I learned to be tolerant and respectful. I moved to United State three year ago because my family was looking for new opportunities to me and my brothers. When I came here was so wire work with people of different culture and ideology. Now I like worked with other people to learn new things. I plant to go to college because one of my dreams is become a psychologist to help people.
