FOR THE PEOPLE AND MEMORIES THAT FILL MY HEART AND SOUL
FOR MY MOTHER: My inspiration in life and my biggest supporter. I wouldn't be here without her selfless love and sacrifices. I do all I do for her and dedicate all my wins and degrees to her. Te amo hasta el infinito
TO MY TIA: My Tia and Godmother passed away on August 3, 2021, due to COVID-19. I miss her dearly and wish she could see me graduate. I also dedicate my wins and degrees to her.
TO MY SIBLINGS: As a first-generation college student, I had to figure out a lot on my own. I do this for my siblings - to show that they can make it too.
TO MY FAMILY: I LOVE YOU ALL ENDLESSLY. THIS IS FOR US
TO THE FRIENDS WHO TURNED TO FAMILY: YOU'VE MADE U.W. FEEL LIKE HOME
