“I’m filled with deep gratitude for the unwavering support of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma throughout my educational journey. Thanks to their generous scholarships, I’ve been able to earn my bachelor’s in education, a master’s in educational leadership, and now, a doctorate in adult learning and development in the workforce. Yakoke for believing in me and investing in my future. I carry this honor with pride and purpose.”
