Hello, my name is Roya Mohammadian Babakandi. I am a first-generation student, and I am so blessed to be a full-time mom to two wonderful kids. I graduated with my AA degree in 2010. I came back to school 13 years later and I am now graduating with my Bachelor's Degree in May 2025. I have been accepted into the School Counseling program at Seattle University and will begin that journey to earn my Master's Degree in September 2025. I invite you to be a part of my educational journey and help me reach my academic goals. I am passionate about helping others, especially children. I believe my education will help me do that to a greater extent. My children have inspired me to go after my dreams and continue my education. I want to show them how important education is and how important it is to not give up!
