Skyline Oral History project interview of Patricia

For my Oral History Project I interviewed a friend of mine thru Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. She is a Pan American Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu medalist Patricia also lived in the Philippines for a portion of her life as well as here in America. During this interview we went over a variety of topics on her life and moving back and forth from the United States of America to the Philippines and then back again to the United States of America. She goes into detail on the some of the immediate differences she notices and her experiences and emotions she felt during this process. Also how the whole process unfolded and reflections on changes and advice she would offer.
