Denisse Mendoza

Denisse Mendoza is currently a student enrolled in the fall semester of Oxnard College at age nineteen. She was born in Ventura California with her parent’s background coming from Mexican descent. She is attending Oxnard College to start her education planning to transfer to San Diego in the future to major in Art. She lives her life as a student at Oxnard College and a part time job at Best Buy in the cell phone sales department. Her motivation to be a successful person in life comes from her older sister Araceli and from within her as well, for her family has never attended a university before. She also does it to be someone in life and not a bum living in the streets. Adventurous, creative and driven are the words that she describes herself as the person she currently is in life. The reason why she chose to attend Oxnard College is because it is a small intimate campus. The only things that she sees can be improved at Oxnard College are sports, student involvement and a theater department which it lacks on.
