Thank you all for all of your support and words of affirmation. I definitely took the long road to graduation, like so many of you, and I am truly better for it.

Life happens, years pass. Shoutout to us, the tenacious ones.

I am so overwhelmed by the response to this tweet. Yall are amazing. Thank you.

So many are asking why it took so long. Long story short...I was wild and distracted in my twenties. I flunked out a couple times and lost financial aid which made it difficult to get back to school. When I was able to get back into school, my gpa was a 1.5.

It took a lot of commitment but when I went back I stayed on the deans list.

I got my AA at a community college, transferred to a 4 year school, founded @SHOUTOUT2MYCREW , started the Black Wellness Project, and joined Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated.

Whatever your goal, don't quit. Do your best and keep going. You got this. :-)
