I am the first in my family to earn a college degree.

Yes

I wanted to earn my degree because:

Art has always been my passion and one of my motivations to love life.

While earning my degree, my greatest supporters were:

Myself and my cats! They joined me in every painting.

I’d like to give a shout out to:

My advisor, Sandra Jeknavorian. She helped me so much to get back on track. I appreciate the help.

What I like best about my degree program and what it means to me is:

I worked two jobs the whole time, so I really liked the process to accommodate classes on my schedule.

What I enjoyed most about my experience at Three Rivers Community College was:

The campus is close to home and there are friendly and amazing teachers and diverse programs for everyone.

Clubs, volunteer work, organizations that I participated in while at Three Rivers included:

Art club and Video Game Club

I plan to use my degree to:

As a personal achievement. I may transfer as well!

Now that I have completed college, I’m most looking forward to:

Buying a house in the next two years and starting my family.

What I’ll miss most about Three Rivers is:

The people 💜
