Hi, I’m Amir Stewart. I’m majoring in chemical engineering at CCNY. The classes for it don’t start for me until next semester; nevertheless I’m excited to get started in it.

I’ve lived in New York my whole life, mainly Staten Island. My mother’s side of the family immigrated here from Trinidad in the 1960s while my father’s side has been in New York for a while now. The biggest migration in my life has been from Staten Island to where I currently live in the Bronx. However, I have visited other places in and out of the US such as Florida and Jamaica.

In my free time I enjoy reading books on my Kindle and solving puzzles. I have a fascination for chemistry and math, going so far as to help others understand the latter subject through tutoring. Despite that I am very interested in what we will be delving into in this class, such as how the different people in New York got their start. I’m sure it will be a very informative class, and I can’t wait to get more from it. I look forward to an exciting and invigorating semester.
