My name is Gabriel Perez, 20 years old Industrial Design student at Kean University from Sayreville, NJ. I am also a proud member of the Kean football team, where I’ve learned the value of discipline, resilience, and teamwork. My passion for industrial design comes from a love of sketching, creating prototypes, and exploring how everyday objects can be improved through innovation and creativity. Outside the classroom and the field, I enjoy lifting weights, trying new foods, and experimenting with different clothing styles as a form of self-expression. I also love playing video games such as Clash Royale, Rainbow Six Siege, and Rocket League, which give me both entertainment and strategic challenge. My Hispanic heritage and upbringing have taught me the importance of helping others, staying connected to community, and embracing culture through food, family, and shared experiences. Looking forward, I aim to combine my creativity, discipline, and passion to make a meaningful impact.
