我叫Selina Saludes，出生于加州威斯敏斯特地区，在一个叫Nuevo的小镇长大。2003年我进入加州浸会大学河滨分校学习，求学期间，我还实现了在加州浸会大学女子足球队当守门员的梦想。2006年我取得了学士学位，主修社会和行为科学，辅修社会学。我意识到为年轻人在学校咨询方面提供专业指导的迫切性，以及为他们提供人生中第二次机会的重要性，所以，本科毕业后我立即开始攻读硕士学位。

这是我在博格思加州学校服务的第二年，希望更好的为中国学生服务，让他们进入理想的美国大学。

My name is Selina Saludes, born in Westminster Ca., and raised in a small town called Nuevo, Ca. Ready to take on life, I went to California State University, Monterey Bay in 2003. In addition to being accepted, I was able to pursue my dream and become part of the CSUMB Women’s Soccer team as a goalie. I completed my undergraduate studies in 2006 with my BA in Social and Behavioral Science, and a Minor in Sociology. I learned the urgency of what I could do in the field of school counseling for our youth, and I fell in love with being able to provide second chances for all youth alike. With almost no time in between, I quickly moved on to pursue my Master’s degree. 

This is my second year in Pegasus, I wish I can support Chinese students better, and help them to enter their ideal American University.
