"My journey with WGU has been one of perseverance, faith, and transformation. As a Haitian immigrant and first-generation college graduate, I've balanced full-time work, fatherhood, and entrepreneurship while pursuing my degree in Business Administration Management. "In 2020, I was close to finishing my associate when COVID-19 hit, and I was preparing to become a father. I made the difficult decision to pause my studies to support my family and explore business ventures. Three years later, I returned to WGU with renewed determination to finish what I started. Every course reminded me that dreams delayed are not dreams denied. "Earning this degree represents more than education; it symbolizes resilience, faith, and hope. It's a promise to my daughter and my community that no matter the challenges, persistence can turn setbacks into success. And I was proud to be walking at commencement on my birthday - it felt like the perfect way to celebrate this chapter and the next step in my career in finance!" John L.’s story is proof that determination shows up in many forms — sometimes as a pause, sometimes as a comeback, always with intention. Returning to finish his degree while balancing family, work, and entrepreneurship speaks to the kind of leadership that’s built through lived experience. We’re honored to celebrate this milestone with him and inspired by the example he sets for his daughter and his community. #WGUgrad #FirstGenGraduate #FutureInFinance
