Hello everyone,

My name is Karina Martinez, I am Math and Science major at LaGuardia. I came to LaGuardia in the hope of transferring to a 4-year school after graduation. The most fascinating thing I’ve studied during my time here is anatomy and physiology. The course was not easy, but I learned an incredible amount and I enjoyed what I learned. Some of my hobbies/interests include spending time with my family, playing and cuddling with my dogs, cooking, trying new foods, and watching documentaries (science, animals, history, true crime, anything with a monotone voice throwing facts at me – love it all). Unfortunately, music is not a big part of my daily life. Sometimes when I am working out or in the shower, I’ll put on top 100 to have playing in the background, but that’s really it. I can say though that my favorite genre of music is anything from the 60s – Etta James, Otis Redding, The Beatles, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, The Temptations, Bee Gees, Aretha Franklin, Nina Simone, Nat King Cole, etc. If I am ever in the mood to actually listen to music that’s what I’ll go for. But I enjoy any kind of music from any era, I’m not musically picky.
