His goal is to work as a Physical Therapist after graduation. He originally came from Vietnam when he was fifteen and has been in America for 10 years. He enjoys playing many sports. However, he enjoys playing soccer the most. His plan is to finish his education and stay close to his friends and family in Boston.

Graduation Year: 2011
Job: Physical Therapy School at MGH
Bottom Line Memory: My counselor Miguel used to come and visit me at my dorm- I remember having to run around and get rid of all my clothes and dishes just so he’d have a place to sit!
If I could send a care package, I’d fill it with: Coffee mugs and lots of candy!
Why I stay involved with Bottom Line: Miguel and Bottom Line have supported me to continue my education and I want to give back. I went to UMass Amherst for 1.5 years and decided to transfer- I wanted to my closer to my family and UMass Lowell had my major- Miguel supported me through all of it. I’m participating in the 2012 Rodman Ride for Kids and fundraising for Bottom Line. I enjoy biking, but I haven’t done it a lot. I’d really like to volunteer at other events.
People would be surprised to learn that I used to: be very very shy and quiet during high school. I didn’t think I’d survive in college!
The BEST part of being a college graduate is: Moving on after college and looking to continue my education.
The HARDEST part about being a college graduate is: I have so many responsibilities now. With my career, for example. I’ve had to really develop critical thinking and time management skills. Bottom Line really helped me to be successful throughout the years.
