In the STRIVE Scholars program, I was able to merge my background with my profession, something that I felt were two separate entities in my life. My story is powerful and unique, I can openly honor the decisions my family has taken so I can pursue my education and achieve my wildest dreams. I would recommend this program to students who want to dig deeper with their own cultural reflections and braid their personal, scholar and professional first-generation identities.
