Overcoming

Overcame significant boundaries to complete my hygiene degree. We experienced a hurricane in our first semester, temporarily closing the dental clinic, as well as a worldwide pandemic (Covid-19) in our last semester. If anything that taught me, and my classmates, how to fight for what we want in life.
