“Did you just hit me with a bunch of gillyflowers?” she laughs, and it’s a bit incredulous, but warm (and plenty amused).

I received my Bachelors of Science & Arts in Neuroscience with a Philosophy Minor. • • First generation college graduate. • First one in the fam to attend a US university. • But, not the first moron to completely change careers & risk it all to start her own business. • • What's next is what excites & terrifies me the most. I'm starting my own journey into the business world. • • Thanks @andyfrisella @therock for mentoring me without necessarily mentoring me. Thanks @1stphorm for helping me become the best human I can be. • • College has confirmed that I can follow rules & turn things in. • • But. • • Rules are sometimes meant to be broken. I value education, but the system we currently have is designed to keep kids into a box so they can work. • • From the books, podcast (@themfceoproject), amazing public figures, etc. I learned that we need to think & dream for whatever we want. There shouldn't be a box in the first place! We must be ready for the work, do the work, & keep pushing. • • I'm happy I got a degree. It's only the beginning. Fail. Learn. Succeed. We got this! • • Congrats to all graduates🔬🎓! Thanks @dmccreadyphoto for your amazing photography work! #UT19Grad #UT19 #CNSGrad (at University of Texas, Austin) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx5SuHKFEit/?igshid=eebn3b0bofxi

It's been a crazy semester. It's not over yet, I have one more final. However, something amazing is about to start as my college years @utaustintx comes to an end. This is @janryantx, an amazing entrepreneur & educator that has taught me about what it means to be a women entrepreneur & how amazing it feels to be surrounded by strong, hardworking, & passionate women. • • What's next? •I will continue working with the kiddos at ABP. •Youth Climbing Training. •I am so happy to continue learning & working @shar.snacks. •I'm grateful to continue representing @1stphorm. •••I'm so freaking scared & excited to finally spend more time working on my business.••• • • I'm thankful for everyone that has been helping & believes in me. I'm so good at putting myself down & doubting myself, but because of the few quality individuals in my life, I'm able to believe that I can do it... & will do it! We can do it, guys! Just make sure to put in the work, execute your plan, & always work hard. #UTBusiness #HookEm #UT19 (at University of Texas, Austin) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxQo7wQABKz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1eypx9z40k7cl
