Abuot Alfredo Quinones-Hinojosa

His name is Alfredo Quinones-Hinojosa , he from Mexico.
He was a former illegal immigrant. Twenty years ago, he came from Mexico into the United States and became a migrant farmworker. But now, he is neurosourgeon and professor at Johns Hopkins Universty, and a researcher who is looking foe a breakthrough in the treatment of brain cancer.
His father could no longer keep food on the table for the family. He became a teacher by the time he was18, but he was unable to provide for his family. And he lived in the fields in a broken-dowm camper. When his cousin told him he would be a farmworker for the rest of his life, he realized it was time to move on.
He studies English at a community collage in california. He went on to Harvard Medical school, where he delivered the commencement speech.

I think he was great person and he has great abilities. His life through felt hope.

Hyunju,

It was good to read your summary. I advise you to watch verb tenses. Sometimes you use the present tense when you mean the past. Otherwise, the summary is very clear.
