It really is a win win\u2026we\u2019re all in this together to succeed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Upon completing her general studies in the coming months, Reyna plans on applying to the Respiratory Care or Radiologic Technology programs. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve built a strong support team here at TSC and I have so many goals and dreams now to work toward,\u201d she said. \u201cTSC has changed my perspective and outlook on my future.
