My name is Ruth Vasquez; I am a first-generation college student who started at Los Angeles City College. I have always had an interest in career counseling and believe it is important for students to explore and find how their Interests, strengths, and skills can lead them to a fulfilling career. I enjoy reading books, playing the guitar, and listening to Salsa and Bachata.
