Sabrina Simmonds, 2023

Baruch College, Castle Hill Projects

Sabrina Simmonds is currently planning to study at Baruch College with an intended major and minor of Finance and Accounting. Sabrina is thankful for the opportunities that was given to her and the achievements that she has made despite having a disadvantaged background. Sabrina grew up in the Castle Hill Projects, and even with the negative reputation the Projects have, Sabrina was able to be a beacon of light and positivity. Through hard work and dedication, Sabrina was able to graduate from Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics and will be the first in her family to pursue college. 

Sabrina has put in the effort to accomplish her hopes and dreams. She hopes to be an inspiration to those who are disadvantaged, but want to do spectacular things in their lives. She wants her younger family members, such as her niece, nephew, and cousins, to follow in her footsteps as well. With the support of her friends, family, and the one above, she knows that she will succeed and make a positive impact in her community.
