About Alessandra Reyes

Are You a Mentor, Student, University, Non-Profit Youth Organization, Business, Corporate Sponsor or Fiscal Sponsor?: Student

About Me:: I am a single mother who gave birth at the early age of 17. I left my son's father because he used to beat me. It was hard to finish high school with a newborn baby; So, I earned my GED and scored a 2995 on my first try! I also took a college psychology course and scored a 4.0. I enjoy photography and want to go back to school so badly, but I cannot afford it.
Finacial aid won't cover me much because I just moved to CT and need to be a resident for a whole year. I would love a scholarship!
I wanted a change for my parents who were struggling with a big drug addiction; So, I took a huge loan out of the bank and moved them out of the Bronx.

Work Field:: Visual merchandising, I'm stuck with retail for now, until I get my degree. I would like to be a psychologist; So, I can help people with there problems. I want to learn more about photography and get into web design art. I also dreamed about being an actress since I was young. I had my 15 minutes of fame when I was on IMNY 25 doing a segment on photography.
