Marvin F. Medina - Leeward CC Commencement Celebration 2022 Graduate

"Hope is the light at the end of the tunnel guiding the way."

"Believe, Achieve, Succeed!"

"The greatest legacy one can pass on to one's children is not money...but rather a legacy of character and faith."

"Keep shining bright as you may be the guiding light for someone who is trying to make it through the tunnel."

"There is a light at the end of the tunnel, but the way out is through."

What started as a hobby in automotive, turned into a passion. That passion created a vision; a career I saw myself in, that I would enjoy spending my working days on. But It wasn't that simple, I had to do it the long way. That meant educating myself to get a degree and spending days on getting the proper training to succeed. Leeward Community College has turned that vision into a reality and for that, a big Mahalo to my instructors for providing the education, the supporting staff for guidance, and also my fellow classmates for creating a bond in which we grew together as friends. I also want to give my deepest appreciation to my family and beloved ones, for the support I truly needed to achieve my goals. All of the many reasons for me to be the best I can be.

Best wishes,
Marvin Medina

Never let anything get in the way of achieving your goals. Covid-19 tried and it failed. We all got what we came for, our degrees.
