Sainah Theodore talks about her success with the International Hospitality Management program at CCPS

“Education is one thing no one can take away from you.” This quote by Elin Nordegren fuels my belief and actions regarding my educational pursuits. 

I desired a graduate-level degree in International Hospitality Management to obtain the knowledge and skills to thrive as a professional. Additionally, this degree allows me to continue to be the standard-bearer for my family while serving as an example for the soldiers under my tutelage in the US Army. My parents migrated to the United States for better opportunities. I feel a sense of responsibility to further my education by taking advantage of available opportunities. 

I am earning the Master of Science degree in International Hospitality Management to gain better opportunities in the hospitality sector. I strive to utilize this degree alongside my chef training diploma.

The Master of Science in International Hospitality Management gives me skills to excel. I have provided service to soldiers numbering in the hundreds. In addition, I have worked with other populations such as civilians and family members. I have coordinated events to assist families with retirement services. Lastly, I have coordinated employee events to boost morale, fundraisers to support semiannual holiday parties, and barbecues hosted by family and friends. 

I have the upmost confidence that earning the Master of Science degree in International Hospitality Management at St. John’s University will provide me with the knowledge and resources to be successful.
