During my time at ECSU (Fall โ20 โ Fall โ25), there were moments when I truly didnโt believe I would make it to this point. I struggled with doubt, isolation, and times where I stopped showing up not just to class, but for myself. There were days I stayed in my room and felt like giving up completely.
What carried me through were the people around me. Some who may not have known what I was facing, yet still showed up for me in ways that mattered. Their support gave me hope and reminded me that this moment was possible. I was fortunate to be part of 1704 Media Production, HCASC, and the Study Abroad program, experiences that surrounded me with creativity, growth, and memories Iโll forever hold close to me.
To everyone who played a role in my journey, thank you โค๏ธ๐ค๐พ This degree is just as much yours as it is mine.
