Hi! My name is Kianna Jade Acevedo. I am a Latina, born and raised in Queens, New York. A fun fact about myself is that I am a mix of Colombian, Puerto Rican, and Italian heritage, yet I find it almost impossible for myself to speak Spanish. Regardless of that fact, English has always been and will continue to be my favorite subject. I am studying at SUNY Cortland to become a certified Adolescent Education teacher so that I can touch the lives of students through the study of English. It is my last semester ever at C-State, and I am troubled by it. I'll miss the beautiful memories I have created here with some fantastic people I have met. I am on the D.R.A.M.A. dance team, and our team performs for fashion shows, competitions, and we are performing for a basketball game on February 21, if anyone would like to come to see! I am also a proud member of the C.U.R.E. educator scholarship program on campus and work at the Bookmark! I love everyone's pictures of their pets, and I am a proud owner of multiple animals too. I decided to upload a photo from my favorite childhood and now adulthood game: "Animal Crossing." This game brings me nothing but happiness, and I could play it all day long. It is very calming, adorable, and free on the app store. I must argue that the D.S. and the Switch version coming out in March are the best versions. I can't wait to take this course with you all, and I look forward to learning, laughing, and good memories in our 430 class.


I’ve never tried Animal Crossing but I have heard a lot of good things! What animals do you have? What are their names? I am currently applying to get a cat named Pudge!
Hi Kiana,
I love your pets haha, very cute. as a fellow last semester senior I’ve got to say I thought I’d be excited about finishing college, but in all honesty it’s absolutely terrifying. I don’t want to say goodbye to everyone and I definitely don’t want to apply to jobs. However, good luck this semester!
