Shatina Hunter Williams in Sicily

 News from one of our grads! Shatina Hunter Williams

 


I graduated college ‘20 and moved to Little Rock for nursing school!  I got married a year later, and with my husband’s job, we moved to Sicily for three years. It’s been a whirlwind this past year! We moved here, and I finally had time to think about what I truly want to do without feeling any pressure. I am now in my 2nd semester of my online MSW program as this degree will allow me to work in the three areas that I love: higher education, healthcare, and geriatrics. I am excited for the possibilities with this career. 

MSW program as this degree will allow me to work in the three areas that I love: higher education, healthcare, and geriatrics. I am excited for the possibilities with this career. I majored in Spanish and moved to an Italian-speaking country; it is a blessing and a curse. I am learning more Italian than I thought I would, and the architecture is phenomenal. We have traveled to Germany, London, Venice, and Rome so far, and I practice mindfulness daily to remind myself of my amazing and enriching present. The Arkansan in me did not foresee ever moving overseas or integrating into military culture. That was a long explanation, but that has been my experience. P.S. I am also still shocked that I enjoy the phenomena of the social sciences.
