Cynthia Cruces

Hi, my name is Cynthia, and Ascender has truly made a difference in my life. This incredible program has given me so much from personal growth to lifelong friendships. Before joining, I never imagined how much a club could shape my confidence, perspective, and sense of belonging. Thanks to Ascender, I’ve met so many amazing people who have become like family, and I know these friendships will last a lifetime. Beyond the connections, Ascender has provided me with opportunities to challenge myself, grow as a person, and be part of something bigger. I am deeply grateful for everything this program has done for me, and I can't wait to see where this journey takes me next. Ascender isn’t just a club it’s a community, a support system, and a place where we all rise together!

“My advice on going back to college if you’ve been out for a while? You can do it. It may seem like a time constraint, fitting in classes and homework, but having an online option makes college available whenever you want.”

“With my travel schedule it’s really hard to be in a classroom, and even when I’m in town my work hours are erratic. The strong point of taking courses online is the flexibility and freedom. I can just log on and do my homework at home or on the road in a hotel.”
