"Many teachers here encouraged and motivated me to put my best foot out into the world and not to be scared of what happens after each step. Now I am taking on challenges I never thought I could possibly face on my own and in the process I am networking with awesome people. Thank you Cerritos College, Dr. D, the Psychology department and of course family and friends! “
