I really enjoy being part of Georgia Southern Online because I feel like I am truly learning and growing as a student. The online format allows me to organize my schedule throughout the week, complete my schoolwork, and still be present for my family.
I served as a military police officer for 15 years, and for a long time, I believed that law enforcement was the only career path available to me. Transitioning from the military, raising three children, searching for a new job, and going to college at the same time sometimes felt impossible. However, I have learned that it is possible when you make a commitment to yourself and stay focused on your end goal. We all have 24 hours in a day, and although balancing everything is not always easy, I try to make time for my family, education, career, and personal growth. Even though I live in Puerto Rico and attend online, the counselors and professors have been supportive and have helped guide me toward making the best decisions for my education and future.
