During these unprecedented times, the Lugo family has been more united than ever. They take the time to have family dinners, play board games, work on their cars and walk their dogs. As they think about our future, they are discussing how Joshua’s senior year experiences have been altered due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Reassuring him to follow his dreams into the music industry. As a mother, wife, friend, Latina, Marissa becomes more resilient in her grad studies and is determined to have a positive outlook in life. Marisa leads by example because she knows people are watching the moves she makes. Words Marisa lives by: “Your integrity is your legacy” Don’t let others dictate who you are.
Marisa
Marisa and I are in a master’s program together. I was really blown away by her kindness in class. She is caring and knowledgeable. What really made me notice her brilliance was when she had to do a group presentation. Her command and presence were true signs of leadership.
Since starting the program, Marisa has been nothing but kind, funny, energetic, and motivational.
