I began college a year after high school in 1988 at Palo Alto Community College, then transferred to Southwest Texas University.
After three years, I withdrew due to receiving a full-time promotion at the company I was working for part-time. The responsibilities of the position left little time for school work, and as a single mother, I felt it was an opportunity I could not let go.
25-years later, I am completing my education and will graduate with a B.S. in Mass Communications Digital Media Innovation in the Fall of 2020. Graduate studies will follow to obtain a Mass Communications M.A. with a Digital Media concentration degree.
