My mom sharing this moment w me was everything. She got emotional, and it was such a special memory we’ll have together forever.”

Thank you to @istitutomarangoni_miami , the wholE staff/faculty and ESPECIALLY the STUDENTS (THE FUTURE!!) for welcoming me and my family and friends w open arms and blessing me w this prestigious honor. Holy fuck I got my masters.”
