Top Defining Moments in Higher Education:

Taking that time off allowed me to see the world through a different perspective which in turn made me work that much harder when I got back in school. -I love helping people. Working with students and seeing them succeed makes this career so rewarding! -Being the first person in my family to get not just one, but two degrees!
While in college, I experienced:
