3 years and we did it! Graduating Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Psychology from UCLA. Given all I have been faced with these last 3 years, this accomplishment means so much to me. I cannot thank my family and friends enough for helping to pull me through. It was not easy, but it sure was worth it! I am beyond grateful for the education, enlightenment, and growth UCLA has afforded me. I am sad that my time here is coming to a close, but I am so looking forward to the next chapter. UCLA '19
