Congratulations Anne-Marie on earning your Masters of Arts and all the accolades that accompany the accomplishment!!
"It was a proud and exciting day on Friday, Nov. 17 as I joined my classmates, and one by one our names were called as we each walked across the stage at Royal Roads University to receive our Master of Arts in Professional Communication degrees! It was two years filled with hard work, sacrifice, growth, and more learning than I had ever imagined, to reach this point. I did not embark on this journey alone - I could not have done this without the love, support, and understanding of my family. Thank you for your sacrifices and belief in me. 💗🙏
I was asked to provide one piece of advice to new or future learners as I departed the campus on Friday. My advice was “Remember why you started”. I learned that there will be days when it feels impossible to get everything done, when there will be people trying to stand in your way and discourage you, when you will question whether all of the sacrifices and hard work are even worth it in the end…I promise you it is.
Education is an achievement that no one can take away from us. It is a gift that equips us with the skills and knowledge to go forth and create positive change wherever we find ourselves. Education provides us with the experience and understanding to make the world a better place than we found it. If you have a goal or dream, pursue it. YOU are the person who determines what you are capable of.
Thank you to Royal Roads University and my awe-inspiring classmates for two years of incredible learning opportunities and experiences." 🙏🙏
