June 6, 2019: Südgelände Park

June 7, 2019 by Leonela Smith Leave a Comment

About Leonela Smith

Photo of Leonela Smith.

At a young age, I used to live in the Dominican Republic. When I was ten, I moved to Penns Grove, New Jersey and was able to learn English in a year. During my high school years, I was involved in many leading organizations. I was a Peer Leader, Captain of the Lady Red Devils basketball team and Vice President of the National Honor Society. Since a very young age, my goal has been to graduate from college with a Bachelors in Landscape Architecture. Now as a second-year LA student I have become more involved with the Rutgers community by joining clubs like the Landscape Architecture club, becoming Treasurer of the COSINE club and becoming a peer mentor for SEBS EOF. This year I have been given the opportunity to study abroad to Germany with the Landscape Architecture department which I am hoping to immerse myself in the new culture.
