Marissa Cook

💐 Accomplishments I'm immensely proud of:

Getting to attend university fully on academic scholarships, getting the chance to master technology and online programs, getting the opportunity to be a TA, getting inducted into the national honor society, getting to compete in a speech contest for the chance to win a scholarship, getting to be on the Dean's list for multiple semesters, making it through the COVID-19 lockdown while still maintaining my grades and sanity, and finally - getting to discover myself more than I thought I ever could.

💓 What I'm grateful for:

I'm grateful for all of the people I've gotten to speak to. I'm grateful for getting to make friends and meet people who are beyond inspiring and kind. I'm grateful for getting to have such wonderful professors and instructors. I'm grateful for the information I've acquired. I'm grateful I never gave up, even at my lowest points. I'm grateful for my family and friends that constantly pushed me to do better academically while simultaneously encouraging me to rest and have fun during these four years. I'm grateful for all of the people who have helped me through hard times. Most of all, I'm grateful for God. Throughout middle school and high school I started to lose my faith but college has not only fully restored it but has made faith such a great comfort I never wish to abandon again.

🤘 Nonacademic experiences:

Throughout my time at university I've gotten to attend multiple festivals, concerts, parties, trips, and more. All of these experiences were amazing and constantly reassured me that playing hard is just as important as working hard!
