About Me
Hi, my name is Gilberto Medina-Hernandez. I am a 17 year old student born on April 5, 1999. I come from the small town of Lindsay, California, which is mostly an agricultural community full of orange groves. Both of my parents are Mexican immigrants and work, or should I say worked in the fields, which if you don’t know is wearying work. I am the youngest of my family of four and I'm also the only boy. I’ve lived in the same house for the better part of my life. Even though, I do not come from a rich family, my parents have always provided for me and given me everything I needed. My parents have helped me overcome adversity in all aspects of life. At an early age, I faced numerous challenges that have shaped me into the person I am today and have inspired me to dream big and make something of myself.
