Hey all! My name is Gabriel, though most people call me Gabe. I am 22 years old and born and raised in Manhattan. This is my second semester at BMCC and I’m majoring in History. I plan to transfer to a 4 year school to double major in History and Film. My end goal is to work in in archives and/or museums and if I can work in that kind of environment while concentrated on films that would be perfect! I realize I might need an advanced degree later on down the line for such a specific field but it’s a good starting point.
Besides pouring over the details for my education, I found that describing my hobbies as just engaging with different kinds of story telling is pretty accurate. I like watching movies (no surprise), reading/listening to books, playing video games, and I’ve started dipping my toes in seeing plays. New York is the perfect place to do that after all.

Nice to meet you Gabriel, I Don’t recall us meeting last class. I’m very eager to know more of you and what this semester has in store for us. I love reading books as well so I’m very happy we have that small connection. New York really is the place for all your adventures and hobbies. Once again, it’s a pleasure to meet you.
Yeah I feel like I missed a decent number of people in class the first day but I look forward to getting to know you and everyone else a bit better as the semester goes on!
Hey Gabriel, I’m a fellow History major here! I’ve got my bachelors in Brazil tho. I love that your goal is to work with museums and archives – it is honestly my favorite field to be at! I feel like sometimes people think that with a History major all one could do is teach but that is such a misconception, the cultural departments and archives are so fascinating and fun, specially here in New York City.
