[dmya] Meet a Few of the Advisory Members

Below are a few short bios by a number of the members in this year's Global Kids Digital Media Youth Advisory:

Troy A.
My Hobbies include playing video games and listening to music and playing football etc. I enjoy listening to R & B and most rap. My life goal is to be the best I can be in any academic courses. My favorite subject is Literacy because I get to express myself by using words. I got involved in Global Kids when two trainers introduced me. I was thrilled and wanted to find out more. I thought that since I love technology and the Digital Media Youth Advisory is based simply on technology I'd find it interesting to see what I can learn. My most vital piece of technology would have to be the computer, which is the brain of most technology devices. It delivers a lot of digital media in many shapes and forms.

Sonam D.
I would want to be part of the Digital Media Youth Advisory because teenagers today are judged and looked at differently. A gap has been created where kids don't understand adults and vice versa. This program, I believe, is a stepping stone to help narrow this gap down.

Ayesha
I am a senior in high school. I am currently in Global Kids and it is my third year doing it. I was introduced to the Digital Media Youth Advisory from Global Kids. I was interested in this program because I am part of the youth and media does affect my life in a positive way. By joining this program I can alter the minds of skeptics on digital media and technology by talking about the good aspects of technology.

Haisu Q.
I was born in Wenzhoo, China and came to America at the age of ten. I am currently a senior in High School. I have been a Global Kids Leader for about two years now. I joined the Global Kids Digital Media Youth Advisory because digital technology is very important in our lives and am eager to learn how I can contribute to the program.

Syndie E.
My name is Syndie and I'm 18 years old. I am a senior in High School. I like to get involved in a lot of things that I think are fun or important. I'm part of the Global Kids Digital Media Youth Advisory because I love playing games and digital media is all around us every day when we walk out the door and also when using computers.
