Veronica Gomez :)

The classmate that I had to interview was Veronica Gomez. She is Mexican American and 20 years old. The old Saint Johns Hospital is where she was born and has lived in Oxnard all her life. She has two siblings, one younger sister and an older brother. Monica, her sister, looks up to her as a role model. Veronica’s mentor is her aunt Peggy. Aunt Peggy helps her focus in school and gives her life advice.
Veronica is currently attending Oxnard College. All her classes are at night. One thing she likes about the college is it’s close to home. She is in school to major as a sociologist. Another reason is because her job requires her to be in school. The name of her job is United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management and Regulation .She balances family, school, and work by working mornings, being home mid day, and going to school at night.
When I asked Veronica to describe herself in three words she said she was friendly, talkative, and spontaneous. She likes any type of music. She has a baby Chihuahua names Mini. Mini was tiny when she got her so that’s how she got the name. She has two tattoos. One is on her shoulder blade. Its is a dove with a dead rose. It is suppose to symbolize strength, life ,and faith. The dove is giving the rose life. The other tattoo she has is on her wrist. It is a heart that spells love and a 69. It stands for her horoscope. She designed both of her tattoos by herself.
