Keto Cotto

A typical day for Keto at the MIYC is one where “I try to the best of my abilities to help my teammates accommodate the members throughout the day, always carrying a smile and positive attitude to make for a positive environment.” When not at the MIYC, “I like to use that time to be productive throughout the day, maybe travel to a new place, hit the gym, go fishing, play basketball with some friends. Or I can even have my days where I’m more of a home body, and may find a new recipe to cook while watching a good show and cleaning the house.” Keto looks forward to the opportunity to experience more of the world and travel more often, including a vacation to his dream locations of Italy and Greece. He also plans “to continue to work hard for all the things I desire and to help the people around me.” His favorite movies include most of Quentin Tarantino’s work - Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill, etc., or anything from Leonardo DiCaprio or Denzel Washington. His favorite card game is Blackjack, and he enjoys 80’s Lite Rock & R&B music. As for the near future: “In the next year I would like to accomplish more stability without getting too content, secure a trade skill over the summer, and travel somewhere new.” Keto believes strongly in the battle against climate change, feminism, and is focused on spreading more kindness and love throughout our communities by always striving to help one another. And his personal motto? “You can only control so much at once, the rest you just let go and let God.”
