Happy couple embracing outdoors with one wearing a plaid shirt and the other in a dark sweater.

Marywood became a home quickly. After this it become a life changing place where I could continue to explore who I am and what it is that I want my life to be about. I was gifted countless lessons, memories, and moments from dozens of mentors, professors, staff, and fellow students. This community gave me the safe space to transform into who I want to be.
