Hi Everyone,
My name is Nia Brown, I am 26 years old, and my pronouns are she/her/hers. My major is Human Services. I was born a raised in Brooklyn, New York, but my mom is Dominican and my dad is Jamaican. Personally, I value my son because he gives me the motivation to do my best in everything I do and he also motivated me to continue my education so I can provide a better future for him. Professionally, I value my education because my education will provide opportunities for me to become successful in anything I choose to do, and with these opportunities, I can provide a bright future for my son. As my major is Human Services my career choice was to become a Child Protective Specialist but when I started my internship last semester I had a change of path. I decide to continue in the Human Services field but focus on working with children.
I have always been interested in taking this course but never found the right time. Since this is my last semester at BMCC, I decided to take this course as my general elective. I am looking forward to learning about the great accomplishments women have contributed to this world. I can not wait to get into the in-depth discussion about women studies and learn about the great work women have contributed.
Hi Nia!
I truly enjoyed reading your introduction and can see that your passion for children within human services stems from your son. I am sure he is going to grow into a wonderful boy. I think the best motivation from within is when you are doing it for someone you love, and that’s so important! I am sure we will have many in-depth conversations about motherhood during this semester.
I am so glad that you were able to take this course before you graduate. I think it is a really important one and is particularly useful for people who want a career in human services. I appreciate your passion to make the best life you can for your son. You will be a great example for him!
Hi Nia
Congrats on this being your last semester at BMCC! Thank you for sharing that about yourself. It’s beautiful that your son is your source of motivation to continue your education, I’m rooting for you! I look forward to hearing your input throughout this course as a human services major.
