My name is Esra Çelik and am the youngest child in my family. I am from Turkey, which is located between Europe and Asia. I graduated from Sakarya University with a degree in Business Management. I came to Miami on June 28, 2011 after winning a Fulbright Scholarship: The Community College Initiative Program at Miami Dade College. I am studying business at MDC for one year and am interested in import\export and human resources. Before that I was an intern at Uzmar Shipyard in Turkey.
