“I’ve Made History At 22 As The First Person In My Family To Graduate From College & Become An Engineer” – Proud Lady Celebrates

A lady named Gisel Ureña has announced her new status in a lengthy post on LinkedIn as she recently graduated with
Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science & Bachelor of Arts in Business at Brandeis University.

Says she’s the first to graduate from college in her family history and also the first to become an engineer.

Read her post below;

I praise God and give Him thanks for everything!

4 years later, I have completed my Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science & Bachelor of Arts in Business at Brandeis University.

I often don’t celebrate or embrace my wins, small or big, because I always think I can or could have done more. However, TODAY I MUST CELEBRATE;
I have made history at 22 years old on May 22, 2022.

First person in my family to graduate from college. First person in my family to be in the STEM field. First person in my family to become an engineer!

This milestone is not just about me. This is for my family’s dreams and dedication. This is for all the sacrifices my ancestors have made. This is for the ones that are coming after me. This is for the new narrative we are writing so we no longer have to be the
“first”. This is for the legacy of those that look like me and most importantly come from similar backgrounds.

This is for change, to
break down systems of oppression and build generational wealth for all.

Congratulations to her.
