In addition to attending class and tutoring, he's also a member of the NYU fencing team and the Colombian national fencing team! Gabriel brings a lot of energy and excitement to his work!

As early as 8th grade, start exploring careers, internships, and other opportunities to learn more about yourself and the potential path you'd like to pursue! Understand the different factors that play a part in your college, scholarship, and career success, then execute a strategy based on your unique goals!
Instead of doing as many different things as you can, do one or two things EXCEPTIONALLY! Find a club you love and help take it to the next level, be the captain of your sports team and lead your team to a championship victory, get an internship at a reputable company, or, try embarking on your own entrepreneurial venture!
After students leave for college, a lot of their actions will be their own responsibility! Parents can still provide love, support, and the occasional care-package, but it's important for students to get exposure to being apart and holding themselves accountable. Traveling sports teams / clubs / etc. is a great way to do this!
