I just raised my price! 🎓🍾 • • • • 4 years led to this very day. A day that at times felt unattainable, or unrealistic . But nevertheless we made it happen through all the stress, struggle, and strife. To Texas Tech: thank you so much for all the growth you have fostered for me, thank you for giving me an environment both in and out of the lecture hall that I could succeed in, thank you for every organization that I was able to be in and lead, thank you for the good and bad days alike. To my community & family: y’all held me down no matter what, and I couldn’t have made it without each and every one of you. Leaving Lubbock was the hardest because I was leaving y’all (but don’t think you got rid of me though). To my advisors, professors, and bosses: you all truly helped me realize that success was possible and realistic even in the times I couldn’t see that for myself. You listened to every idea, every complaint, and challenged me to be better. With that thank you to everyone who said congratulations, sent gifts, called/texted me I will be working on responding throughout the rest of the day and tomorrow. #blackgraduates #degreed #ttu22
