As a full-time worker and a devoted father, Damian Brizuela knew that obtaining a college degree would open up new opportunities for upward mobility and financial stability.
"I always wanted to go to college, regardless of which job or position I was in," Damian shares. "It was something I knew I needed to do for myself and for my family."
Like many adult learners, Damian explored various educational pathways before finding the right fit. He tried community college and online universities but struggled to find a supportive and flexible environment that aligned with his lifestyle. That's when he discovered Rivet School — a pathway where he could pursue his degree on his own terms while balancing the demands of life.
For Damian, the benefits of earning his degree extend far beyond financial gain. "I can provide my daughter with the life she deserves," he shares. "It's about giving her opportunities and experiences that I never had growing up."
