Giovanni was born in the Dominican Republic. He came to New York when he was 3 years old.
He has been working as a doorman for almost 2 years, part-time.
His home is in East Harlem, but he hates living in a ghetto full of gangs, fights and all sorts of drama. His familiy is spread all over town, in the Bronx, Queens and Harlem.
If he could live somewhere else, he would definitely move to Santiago, Dominican Republic.
He considers the people living in his building as friends. Not good or bad ones, just friends. Despite that, he still does not understand why people insist on bringing their problems to him. The two things he loves the most about his job are helping people, and the money he makes.
In his opinion, New York has one big upside : liberty. You can wear whatever you want, and love whoever you want. And no one cares.
