I was born and raised in a high crime area in The Bronx. Once I saw a man from my window robbing the apartment across from me. I was scared and did not feel safe. During that time, I grew up watching a lot of crime shows, especially Law and Order Special Victims Unit. I loved watching this show because it was entertaining, relatable to my neighborhood, and had a strong female role. Over the years my neighborhood needed to be more help to make it a safe place for people who lives there. My passion for law enforcement has developed from wanting to reform my community and watching the television show Law and Order SVU, which dealt with neighborhood like mine. I will not have a dull moment because I’ll be active and meeting different kind of people. This explains why I chose to major in Criminal Justice at the University of Hartford.

The importance of Alexander Graham Bell on today’s society is visible, or rather audible, every day and everywhere. First and foremost, Alexander Graham Bell was a prolific teacher of the deaf.
