“After I had my daughter, I wanted to find my purpose. Getting a college education—this is something I was meant to do. Immaculata definitely watered that seed that was planted in me. Sometimes it’s hard, being a mom and being a student. And my advisor empathized with me, and she really tried to help. I’ve had times where I felt defeated, intimidated and overwhelmed. But my professors stuck it out with me—they were real troopers. Life’s responsibilities have taught me that being patient and persistent in working toward your goals can make them achievable."
