TESTIMONIALS OF STUDENTS

Picture of Student Amanda Esparza sharing her testimonial, The image showcases a person standing outdoors on a sunny day. The individual has long, curly brown hair and is wearing black-rimmed glasses and a black dress with fluttery sleeves. They are adorned with multiple cords and two stoles. The stoles are white with gold trim and feature embroidered designs. The person is smiling and standing with their hands clasped together. The background shows a green landscape with trees and a bit of a blue vehicle in the far left corner, partially out of frame. The lighting suggests it is either early morning or late afternoon.
I'm absolutely floored by the level of support the faculty have put into this program. I can't wait to put my degree to use and change the world!
