Individuals often define their identity through a blend of cultural elements that shape their perspectives and lifestyles. Nationality can play a significant role, especially for first-generation Americans who may blend their family'
You may add more subtopics of cultural elements that help make up who you are. Other things to think about:
nationality (American, American-________, maybe you're first generation American and your family is originally another nationality, like Filipino or Puerto Rican)
religion
family structure (some people value extended family, some people consider family more than blood-relative, etc.)
sports you play/watch
[parents'] jobs (sometimes this does dictate certain things about you are. For example: growing up in the US Air Force influences how I see some things in the world, incorporate certain language, personality traits, etc.)
hobbies/Activities you participate in (School related or not, there are influences of the things you do. There's a clear culture in Speech & Debate; are you a Scout? Are you a cook/baker? Do you play particular games?)
technology
other things you are a fan of (are you an anime fan? Do you like a certain show or movie? Are there common traits around certain Youtubers or Influencers you admire?)
