Hospitality and Tourism
"I am enrolled in the Business Management program at Eastern Maine Community College and intend to complete my Bachelor’s degree in Accounting at the University of Maine. As a non-traditional student, juggling a full-time job and academia can certainly prove to be challenging. I work in Human Resources for a local nonprofit organization that supports the Indigenous Communities of Maine. I understand the importance and the value of education. For me, it means the opportunity to better support my family and to empower others to never give up."
