Meet Kenia, our Administrative Compliance Assistant and proud PO alumna M.A. Marriage and Family Therapy Class of 2024!
“I feel an immense sense of pride being First Gen in my family. I am the first to go to college and the first to have received a masters degree! I’m grateful that I was able to achieve such accomplishments, not just for me but for my family as well.
Being first gen is much more than just recognition and accolades. It’s taught me the value of believing in oneself, in learning to accept and embrace oneself, acknowledging one’s own gifts, talents, and power. For me, being first gen means I have the privilege, gift, and honor of carving out my own path for myself, enabling me to create the life I desire. In doing so, I hope that I lead by example and will always strive to uplift others. Si soy la primera, pero no la última.”
