The award was an extremely surreal one to receive and I am very grateful for that and the fact that I got to meet with the other experts that I had been focusing on during development, was another award in itself; the networking aspect of it all and really feeling like for the first time, I was able to be a part of an event and a group that I can learn from and share stories with regarding a strong passion of mine—education.”
