I moved to America from Uzbekistan as an immigrant at the age of 12. In addition to Uzbek and Tajik, my parents also speak Russian, which makes me want to speak it too and be able to use it to read Russian literature and texts about it. This is why I have chosen Russian Translation as a major at Hunter, while being on the Pre-PA track. In the future, I’m planning on becoming a Physician Assistant and a translator as my second job.
