Describe some obstacles you have overcome in your life and how that has changed or shaped you.
In 2018, I embarked on a journey to attend college in Illinois, seeking a fresh start and intrigued by the vibrancy of Chicago—until the harsh winter weather hit. After 2.5 years, I made the decision to transfer to Florida Gulf Coast University for a change. Unfortunately, this move resulted in the loss of 1.5 years' worth of credits, significantly setting back my progress towards obtaining my bachelor's degree. This period left me feeling upset, stressed, and confused about my life direction. Facing the uncertainty of my path at 23/24 was challenging. However, after some time, things have finally started to come together, bringing a sense of clarity and purpose to my journey.

Take each step at your own pace, and remember that growth often comes from challenges. You're not alone, and your journey is uniquely yours.
