Living in America knowing what my parents have endured throughout their lives has undeniably shaped me into the person I am today. I grew up knowing how much of a determined, strong, and independent woman my mother is, characteristics rooted in her culture and life in her home country; it’s something that has persistently motivated me to be the self-assured and self-reliant person I am, just like her. My father has experienced unbelievable encounters in his incredible life, which have proved to me what true care and dedication can ultimately become, one of the many reasons I am diligent and committed in everything I do. My parent’s lives in their native countries and in America have not just taught me lessons I couldn’t have possibly learned elsewhere, but they have inspired and molded me into the person I am today, and for that, I am forever grateful.
