Passion: “Networking and doing everything to be successful in the future for myself and my children, so they don’t have to depend on certain institutions. I want an MBA and PhD in Business.”

What do you like about Grace Outreach?: “The atmosphere— it’s happy and joyful, the staff, and the sisterhood bonding between the students. People respect each other here.”

What you have learned at Grace Outreach?: “Even though you may not agree with someone, you need to set aside your differences because we all have the same goal.”

What advice would you give a new student?: “Even though you started off slow, it doesn’t mean you can’t progress yourself. Every day here is a new learning experience. I wake up every day and thank God I’m here in this program. My aunt got her GED here and now she’s getting her LPN.”
