Congratulations on your hard-earned accomplishments and to all of our graduates!

Bachelor of Arts in Psychology

This picture is of me wearing my cap and gown on top of the rocky environment of Mauna Kea. I am high in elevation so the clouds in the background are lower and Hualālai (another mountain of the Big Island) is also seen peaking above the clouds.

Photo is of me sitting. I am in my cap and gown with a stole and cords of Phi Theta Kappa colors (blue and gold). I am doing a pose where it is similar to a “thinker” position and you can see a smile behind my hand.

Photo is of me on Mauna Kea. The sky is Clearly seen in the background with the sun Shining brightly

I am in my cap and gown with stole and cords. I’m sitting in a forest environment with pine trees behind me. I am smiling with enthusiasm and sun shining in my face.

Photo is of me wearing my cap and gown, also with a stole and cords that represent Phi Theta Kappa colors, blue and gold.

Thank you so much to the ones who love me, who care for me, and who enjoys my company, truly thank you. Thank you for helping me on my journey through dark and difficult times and still supporting me to this day.
Even to those that were part of those dark times for me, I’ve learned, I have grown, and I have forgiven. Thank you for allowing me to learn from you.

I love and appreciate you all.

“Never regret something that once made you smile.”

Mahalo ā nui loa to my professors at UH Hilo in the Psychology department. I was able to learn and grow through each of my classes. I was able to finally learn my passion and what I can bring to this world. I am going to be headstrong in my journey to whatever I become and I am going to achieve my goals. Thank you all for the help, I truly to appreciate it. Farewell and until we meet again, Mahalo.

“Growth occurs when individuals confront problems, struggle to master them, and through that struggle develop new aspects of their skills, capacities, views about life.” - Dr. Carl R. Rogers

I have a motto and creeds that I go by and will keep. My motto is “I want others and myself to L.I.V.E. To Learn, Inspire, Venture, and Enjoy.”

My creeds of my life are Life, Love, Hope, and Balance. Appreciate the ‘Life’ around you, ‘Love’ the ones or things that you can, ‘Hope’ to inspire others and for a prosperous tomorrow, and finally have ‘Balance’ in your universe to keep stability.

Share the Aloha!
