SAN BERNARDINO, CA
Aspiring world leader.
My name is Son Ca Nguyen. I'm a friendly, open-minded person and I like to help people out whenever I can. I graduated from Arroyo Valley High School in 2010. I got into college in the Fall of 2010. Since then, I been working towards my Business Administration: Information Systems bachelors of science degree at California State University, Long Beach. I'm also considering double majoring in Computer Science too.
After college, I am joining the law enforcement and I'm currently considering joining the Defense Security Service. Alongside being in the law enforcement, I would also like to start my own business. One business possibility - a business in computer security. Protecting people, serving justice, providing a great business for people, and being a productive leader in my community are some of the things I would like to achieve, so my college education and decisions in life are going to help my dreams become a reality.
