telling students not to worry about where they are in their academic career. I had no plans after high school and thought I was a bad student. I was embarrassed about going to community college but ended up transferring to UCLA and not having to pay any money for it. I now get to help thousands of students navigate the transfer process and couldn't be happier about my journey.
