I’m two terms away from graduating and on track to graduate in a few months. I’ve worked hard to get here—maintaining a 4.0 GPA in my Bachelor’s program and being selected as a Commencement Speaker Finalist, something I still can’t believe I accomplished. Now, I’m just a few months away from completing my Master’s, currently holding a 3.9 GPA.
My journey didn’t start here. There was a time in my life when I experienced homelessness—uncertainty, instability, and moments where the future felt out of reach. But I made a decision that those circumstances wouldn’t define me. I stayed focused. I kept showing up. I built discipline, faith, and belief in something greater for my life. Today, I’m not where I started—I’m standing at the finish line of something I once thought was impossible.
As I got closer to the end, my scholarships ran out—but my hope didn’t. Right now, I’m facing a balance that’s preventing me from enrolling in my final two terms, and it must be paid in full by July 1st—just two months away. This isn’t about starting over—this is about finishing strong. I’m not asking for sympathy. I’m asking for support from those who believe in growth, resilience, and seeing things through. Beyond graduation, I’m determined to publish a book by the end of this year—to share my journey and hopefully inspire others who are fighting their way forward.
Every contribution, no matter the amount, helps me complete my degree, continue building forward momentum, and turn this journey into something even greater. If you’re not able to give, sharing this means just as much. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for being part of this final push.
