About Me
My name is Juan Lorenzo and I am currently a student at Rider University. I am a psychology mayor with a minor in criminal justice. After I graduate from college, I want to utilize my degree by working for the FBI and later starting a non-profit organization for displaced individuals. I have many long and short term goals but with my hard work ethic I can accomplish each one. I like to undertake challenges because it proves and perpetuates my character, creative, observant and my good intrapersonal skills. I belong to the class of 2013 in the Leadership Development Program here at Rider University in which a certain amount of students were accepted. On my spare time, I enjoy reading, networking and discovering the different aspects of many cultures, painting, drawing and exploring the various music genres. In the future, I want to continue traveling to distinctive countries which includes my visitation to South America in hopes to improve their environment.
