I never thought I would go to college. It’s great to get the college credits and the hands-on experience.

My kids every day tell me, ‘Mom, thank you.' I am proud that I will provide a better quality of life for my kids.

It was a journey for sure. It took me 4 years. But I’m finally stable where I don’t need government assistance.
