And with that, my collegiate season comes to an end! 🎬 On May 18th I officially graduated from The George Washington University with a BA in Organizational Sciences and a minor in Marketing! As a #firstgeneration college student, college was no easy feat. There was a constant strain between the pursuit of perceived excellence and leaving enough room for grace in the midst of growth. During my time at GW, I was challenged in ways that my high school self would've never imagined. From being Vice President of GW Women In Business and a peer mentor to holding 7 internship positions, I experienced incredible opportunities. Despite the many setbacks and moments of redirection, I'm grateful for my undergraduate experience. To all my professors, peers, program managers, and mentors, thank you for all of your support and words of wisdom! As I embark on my post-grad journey, I'm excited to announce that I will be returning to IBM as a Marketing Professional in their New York City office! I would like to thank all the amazing individuals that I've met over the course of my internships that made my experience great. I would also like to give a special thank you to Ashley Cureton, Spencer Barnardo, Stephanie Benavides, and Lana Soileau for a smooth and supportive early professional process! I look forward to the road ahead! #ibmer 🐝💙 #recentgrad #marketing #ibm #nyc #tech #womenintech #blackintech
