Throughout my academic career, I quickly learned that no matter where you go, you should give 120% worth of effort and make the most of any and every opportunity ‼️💯

recognized that effort during my Production Relief Internship during the Summer of 2022, and I am humbled, grateful, and excited to return back…but as a Customer Service Representative (CSR) Intern for the upcoming Spring/Summer term of 2023! 🎉🙌🏾

I would like to thank God for providing me with daily peace and confidence amongst the stress of Co-op applying, my loved ones for your continuous support and prayers, and everyone at WestRock that recognized how I’ve grown in a year’s time, and wanted to continue another working partnership this year 🙏🏾❤️

Through the strength and wisdom God will provide me, I promise to make my final Co-op the most Unforgettable one yet! 🫡

Life has a real funny way of bringing forth opportunities to you.

The kind of opportunities that feel like school tests that you believe you have not studied enough for and need more time. The kind that come at the most inconvenient, yet, perfect time in your life where you are at the brink of calling it quits and turning your back on what you initially wanted more than ever before.

We are our own biggest enemy. Not our friends, loved ones, mentors or teachers; it’s us. And, if we allow past mistakes, failures, insecurities or doubts to submerge ourselves in a state of complacency, the only type of success or victory we can constantly relish in, is the feeling of regret.

Rather than turning your back on the obstacles that block you from what you truly want to do and who you want to be, think of those obstacles (whether as small as a pebble or as big as Mount Everest), as one step closer to becoming the person you desire in becoming in this world. Take every second, day, lesson, practice, test, and obstacle one “baby step” at a time; and one day you will wake up with everything you have ever wanted in life in the palm of your hands.

You cannot escape working hard (it’s simple, but not easy)
