“There were two pieces of advice that I received during my first year as an undergrad, that I still carry with me to this day.
1) Don’t be afraid of falling down. Every challenge we face is an opportunity to learn, grow and become our best selves.
2) Surround yourself with good company. You will need their support in the years to come.
Both tips were provided by my parents. As in most cases, they were right!”
