Hi everyone! My name is Kimberly Letran and I graduated from Don Bosco Cristo Rey back in 2018.
Making the transition to DBCR was nerve racking. When I first walked the halls at Don Bosco, I remember being really nervous, unsure of what my life there would be like. I soon found relief, thanks to a close-knit group of friends, wonderful teachers, and an encouraging environment.
White at Don Bosco, I was a member of Girls Who Code, Secretary of the National Honor Society, and a Student Ambassador. I also had the pleasure of being a student worker at Sidley Austin LLP, a global law firm, and Jezic & Moyse, a smaller private practice. Through these experiences, I gained valuable field knowledge, learned how to navigate a professional setting, and narrowed down the many career options I was exploring.
Senior year, I applied to eight universities and was super proud that I was accepted into all of them! After much consideration, I decided to attend the University of Maryland, College Park to major in Economics. Going from such a small school to a big campus was daunting, but the range of possibilities were endless! I found myself enjoying a myriad of things; from professional clubs to ethnic ones, and everything in between! I’m currently finishing up my degree and trying to figure out my next steps as my undergraduate life is coming to a close.
As I look back, I can truly appreciate the invaluable experiences Don Bosco has given me and am proud to be an alum.
