Grit Story

My parents divorced, and my dad became depressed. I stopped working for four years, which led to financial ruin. Besides that, I was also paying for my brother's education, so it's been difficult to have enough food for my own meals.

Academic Path

I want to get my psychology degree and then get my master's degree in legal psychology.

Work History

I only work on Fridays at a small school for two hours; it's my only job.

Community Impact

At university I am a faculty advisor, and my family is religious and sometimes we contribute to go out for alms.

Future Aspirations

First, I need to find a job as a psychologist in a prison, then go to another country and live a slightly different life.
