HEY~~ you are so welcome to my portfolio. Click inside and you will see things that’s all about ME*** >.<

Hi! everyone, my name is Ying Chow. I live in Forest Hills, Queens. I am a Mental Health major student in LaGuardia. I’m from Hong Kong and I've been in New York for 7 years. I love the diversity in New York. I can learn a lot from others who are very different from me. My goals for my future are finishing my master’s degree in Psychology and hopefully have a chance to continue my Ph.D.  in Psychology. I am not currently employed but I’m selling women’s clothing and jewelry. And I am an intern with the CUNY CATCH program. I also do community service as an ESL teacher to new immigrants with the “Father’s heart” organization. I have been volunteering as a tutor for children or immigrants in different places. Sometimes, I help in a soup kitchen program to feed homeless people. I hope in the future my schedule would allow me to enroll in some mentoring or caring, counseling program, which is what I like to do the most. I want to give back to the community and I know how bad it feels when people desperately need help. I also want to gain knowledge and experience from helping others by learning to deal with certain people and certain situations.

I like to do a lot of different things. I like reading (books relate to Psychology, spiritual, better relationship, communication, philosophy, Oprah Winfrey, human service…). I also like to go to movies, go to church, beach, dance, sing, participate in sports, and walking around in city to explore more different cultures and things I have never seen before. Of course, I like to get together with my friends and see how they are doing.

LaGuardia is a place which helps you reach your goals and provides lots of different services or needs to nurture you to become what you want to be. The professors and schoolmates are kind and friendly, although they are all different from me. My ePortfolios are open to everyone. In here you could find everything that’s about me. I want visitors to understand me more after they visits my ePortfolios and feel my passion, genuineness, and energy flow in my writing.

My favorite quote:

I use mermaid to represent me because I was born in February and the sign for the month is Pisces. Pisces sign  is represented by a fish.
