Jessica Markowski – All My Friends Are Models

Growing up in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, in the 90s, was very different than it is today. It was a neighborhood of Polish immigrants all working blue collar jobs, barely speaking English. Every neighbor, restaurant, deli, 99 cents store was Polish. Even though I was born in America, my first language was Polish. I learned how to speak English in Pre-school. Today, Greenpoint, Brooklyn is now gentrified and popular to many.
