An Immigrant in Disguise

My name is Doris Hu and I am a freshman at the Macaulay Honors College at Baruch College. I hope to pursue a major in finance, but I am still very open to other fields.

I was born in America in 1992. However, my parents struggled taking care of me and my brother. They made the decision to have me be raised by my grandmother from my mother’s side. Since she lived in China, I migrated there when I was just a few months old. Later on, I moved back to the United States just in time for kindergarten. My home was at China. I knew no one here. Not even my family members. I had to battle the difficulty of learning a new language and the hardships of integration. Even though I was born here, I feel that I have had the experiences of an immigrant.
