Becoming
Book Description
“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere or achieving a certain aim. I see it instead as forward motion, a means of evolving, a way to reach continuously toward a better self. The journey doesn’t end.” (Michelle Obama)Upon reading this quote, I was struck by its accuracy in describing my journey of self-discovery in academia. Words of faith, family, and hope filled this inspirational book’s pages and helped guide and ground my path as a woman traversing the roads of the academy.
