Your twenties are the time to both accept and fight your way into the person you're destined to become.

It's the presence of others who are smarter, kinder, wiser, and different from you that enables you to evolve. Those are the people to surround yourself with at all times.

Never take no from somebody who cannot say yes.

I could enjoy the life that I had by virtue of the educational attainment that my grandparents and parents had pursued. Education was always incredibly valued in our family.

Make your life a story worth telling.

In those moments when priorities clash always stay guided by your values, not your perceived necessities.

In moments of uncertainty...i mmerse yourself in the life you would be most proud to live.
