From being a fresh transfer student at the beginning of the year to now coming up on my final semester. Eleven demanding months of academic rigor, 16 units over the regular semester and 10 over the summer session, now fully reflected in my degree audit. To have gotten this much completed while simultaneously self-representing in civil process and appellate proceedings has given me a massive boost in confidence over my own capabilities.
I finished at San Diego City College in the summer of 2024, and walked at the next commencement in the spring of 2025 after my first semester at SDSU. Now, in less than 6 months, I’ll be in another graduation ceremony at the university level from San Diego State; back-to-back graduation years.
