I graduated college!

The journey was difficult but I made it! I graduated from Cal Poly Humboldt with a degree in journalism. I worked on the student-run newspaper and worked at the local TV station during my time at Humboldt. I also made some great friends there.

... Read moreGraduation is a significant milestone in one's life, representing hard work, dedication, and growth. As a recent graduate of Cal Poly Humboldt, I can attest to the fact that the journey is filled with ups and downs. From experiencing rigorous coursework to working on the student-run newspaper, I learned invaluable lessons that will undoubtedly shape my future career in journalism. The camaraderie built with my peers is something I cherish the most. Collaborating on diverse stories and projects helped me cultivate important skills such as teamwork and communication. Additionally, my time spent at a local TV station allowed me to gain practical experience in a professional setting, further enhancing my knowledge of the media and journalism landscape. Graduation day wasn’t just a personal achievement but also a celebration with family and friends who supported me throughout my academic journey. It is a reminder that while the path may be challenging, the outcome is incredibly rewarding. I look forward to applying what I’ve learned and continuing to grow in the field of journalism, embracing new opportunities to tell impactful stories.

I graduated college! Everything I wish I knew
1. If you don’t know EXACTLY what you want to do (and most people don’t) go to community college for your general education courses. Yes you do miss some experiences BUT you save thousands and more and more people are doing this 2. Sometimes not getting into your dream school is a total blessing

I graduated college during a mental health crisis
At the same time I was earning my degree, I was also facing one of the hardest moments of my life—being newly diagnosed with Bipolar 1 with psychosis. When I came down from the mania/psychosis. I became severely depressed. Some days, just getting out of bed felt impossible. But I kept going.
