To my Online Family, it is with heartfelt appreciation and immense joy, I am proud to announce that I have been awarded a 2024 OAS Graduate Scholarship! 🎓

This achievement would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of so many wonderful people. ❤️

First and foremost, I extend my deepest thanks to God for the blessings of good health and strength, allowing me to continue pursuing my graduate studies and my dream of a PhD. To my husband, Calvez—your unwavering support means the world as we walk this lifelong learning journey together. My son, Juwon, and my father, your encouragement has been a constant source of strength. 🥰🥰

I am especially grateful to my academic advisors, Dr. Tracy Davis and Dr. Julie Brines, for their heartfelt recommendations and the entire Western Illinois University family for your steadfast support. A heartfelt thanks also goes to my CFBC family—without your guidance, this academic dream may have remained out of reach. Special mention to Dr. Tamu Browne, Dr. Moiya Rowtham, Immediate Past President Mr. Andrew Abraham, and Dean Laverne Brookes for being instrumental in this journey. 🎓

I also express my sincere gratitude to the Government of St. Kitts and Nevis, our local OAS office, Ms. Kaye Bass, and her team for their support. To the distinguished OAS Scholarship office and Ms. Patricia Quiroz, thank you for guiding me every step of the way with such thoughtfulness and care. 👌

As the saying goes, it takes a village not only to raise a child but to guide us through life's journey. I am truly fortunate to have the backing of my incredible family, friends, and global community. I will strive to make you all proud.

Thank you all once again, and here's to this exciting new chapter!

Cheers! 🍾🥂
