Christopher Aguilar

I was born in Boston, Massachusetts to Salvadorian parents and raised in Chelsea. Growing up, I was always surrounded by Latinos but that all changed when I moved to Georgia. I experienced a cultural shock and had to adjust. I attended Alexander High School in Douglasville, Georgia and graduated as salutatorian of my class. Coming to Georgia Tech, I did not really know what to expect. My first semester was a wake-up call however and I quickly transitioned to the demands of college. Through my time at Tech, I have gotten to know some Hermanos and I was always impressed by their dedication and hard work in helping the Latino community. This, along with the leadership qualities they demonstrated, made me want to pledge this fraternity even more. In doing so, I have experienced firsthand the true meaning of brotherhood and it has been and will continue to be a truly rewarding experience as I grow more as a person in life.
