Let’s talk progress 📈 4 years of a battle Social media can be a highlight reel, and sometimes comparing myself to those picture-perfect fitness models can be discouraging. But here’s the thing: progress isn’t always linear, and my body is STRONGER than it was 4 years ago, even if it doesn’t look like it “should” based on some unrealistic standard. This week, finals are looming, and the library is calling my name for hours on end. Between studying and caffeine-fueled all-nighters, meal prep feels like a distant dream. Healthy eating doesn’t have to be fancy or time-consuming. Quick protein shakes and grabbing fruit are my go-to’s for staying energized during these stressful times. But that’s when I remind myself: Food is fuel, not a reward! Nourishing my body gives me the energy to crush my workouts and conquer those exams. Every person eats differently and every person is on their own timeline and journey. Don’t forget that the timeline for others isn’t necessarily the timeline you should follow. The truth is, growth happens outside your comfort zone. Every time I push myself to go to the gym, even when I’d rather stay in, I get a little closer to my goals. #fitnessjourney #progressnotperfection #healthylifestyle #motivation #fitnessmotivation #health #gym #workout #workoutroutine #gymwear #gymshark #gymsharkwomen #fitness #fit #fitnessaddict #gymgirl #gym #ghostlifestyle #gymsharklift #FIUlaw #gradschool #celcius
What an inspiring conversation! We were honored to host FIU Board of Trustee Chanel T. Rowe, Esq. as part of our Black Women in Law Series with the Jack D. Gordon Institute for Public Policy.

From her achievements as an FIU Law School Valedictorian and entrepreneur, to her current leadership role as Senior Legal Counsel at Johnson & Johnson, Chanel’s experience and insights were truly enlightening.

"Let's not assume for one minute that our work is done. The struggle for equal justice continues. Keep pushing and keep going. Do it in a non-violent manner. Keep doing it until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.” - Fred D. Gray An unforgettable moment meeting the legendary Fred Gray, the civil rights attorney who shaped America's history. From representing Rosa Parks to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., his impact is immeasurable. Grateful to FIU College of Law, Professor H.T. Smith, and Scott Fingerhut for bringing his remarkable insights to South Florida. @Fiu @Fiu_law #CivilRightsIcon #FIULaw #MakingHistory #InspiringMoments

So happy for our youngest son, Kevin, as he received the @fiuhonors FIU Honors College Medallion of Excellence for Exceptional Academic Achievement. This selected group of dedicated, hard working students have met the requirements of the Honors College program. Many thanks to his biggest fan, FIU Honors Dean Juan Carlos Espinosa, now our dear friend. FIU was recently ranked #4 in Public Universities in the nation by the Wall Street Journal’s “America’s Best Colleges”. Kevin completed the program in 3 1/2 years, while also working hard to help establish the FIU Esports department. In his time there, it went from an idea to a thriving and trailblazing sports department, in this fast growing industry. We are without words to express how honored we are to be Kevin’s parents. On to graduation coming soon! Go Kevin!🏅📜 #FIUHonors #fiuesports #FIULaw FIU Honors College #proudparents

What an honor and absolute pleasure to return to @fiu_law Florida to participate in Professor Stone's annual "Successful Alumni Panel." ⚖ I was a first timer and was thrilled to be among such an impressive panel of employment attorneys. As a plaintiff-side attorney, I had a bit of fun with others who I have personally litigated against. We gave students insights for breaking into employment law and described what it takes to succeed in such a compelling and competitive area of the law. I never imagined opening Kaplan Employment Law a year out of law school, but it would not have been possible without @fiuinstagram. As a three-time alumni, this event was certainly meaningful to me. From 2011 to 2021, I earned an English B.A., Creative Writing M.F.A., and J.D. all from FIU. It's great to see both the College of Law and the University itself getting well-deserved recognition nationally. I always enjoyed this panel during all three years of law school and never thought I would be invited to speak as a practicing attorney. Thanks for having me! #Employmentlaw #Fiulaw #employmentlawyer
Our younger son Kevin and three powerhouses, WOW! 👏👏👏 It all started as a farewell and gratitude “Cafecito” with Kevin and one of his mentors, Dr. Juan Carlos Espinosa, Dean of the FIU Honors College, since Kevin will be graduating in just a few weeks. Then, they were joined by FIU Law Dean Antony Page, with an informative welcome for Kevin into FIU Law. And most amazing of all, they were joined by our dear friend and also one of Kevin’s great supporters and mentors, FIU Provost and COO, Dr. Elizabeth Bejar Chammas. What an afternoon reminiscing on Kevin’s journey at FIU and his impact on the FIU’s Esports Dept. It seems like yesterday that he was being welcomed into the FIU family, and here we are. They also took a sneak peek into the soon to be inaugurated FIU Esports Arena. Next stop for Kevin in a few months, FIU Law School! We are so humbled and proud of your achievements Kevin! Go Panthers! 💙💛 🐆 #FIUHonors #FIULaw #fiuesports #proudparents

FIU Homecoming and Parent and Family Weekend 2023! It’s hard to believe that this is our younger son Kevin’s last semester at FIU!! We have no words to thank our dear friend, FIU Madam Provost Dr. Elizabeth Bejar @elizabethbejarchammas, and FIU President Dr. Kenneth Jessel (so awesome to personally thank them again yesterday) for the unconditional support for Kevin. He was recruited into FIU’s Honors College with a love and vision for competitive Esports, particularly in managing and coaching teams. He will leave with the satisfaction of helping to form a thriving Esports Dept. with 2 Varsity teams! Yesterday, we celebrated FIU, and how far it has come in so many ways. Finally recognized as a top public university in the rankings for both undergrad and law. We are honored that Kevin is going on to FIU Law, and to support this great institution! Congratulations to all! 💙💛 🐆 #FIUHonors #FIUEsports #FIULaw #jimmyquirogadesigns #jimmyquiroga
