After transferring from NAU to ASU in 2023, I set an ambitious goal: graduate a year early. That meant back-to-back 18-credit semesters, a 16-credit summer, and a 22-credit final semester all while working 40 to 60 hours a week running my nail business. It was intense, but I wouldn’t trade the lessons I learned through this journey for anything.

Alongside my academic path, I also went through one of the most transformative personal journeys of my life, losing over 50 pounds and committing fully to my health and wellness.

What I’ve learned through all of this is the power of commitment and consistency. If you want to do big things in life, you have to be willing to do the small things every day. For a commitment to something is putting in more even when you don’t get the results you want.

Now, I’m taking this energy and momentum into my next chapter moving to New York City to launch my marketing career. I’m so eager to bring my creativity, strategic mindset, and entrepreneurial spirit to a fast-paced, purpose-driven team.
