Glenda started at USM at 16 right after graduating high school. She credits USM with introducing her gently to college life and the rigors of a tertiary education, which prepared her to earn two more degrees in the U.S. "usm provided the first experiences of tertiary education and what to expect and my first networking opportunities that prove fruitful in present day ," Glenda says.

She earned a Bachelor's degree in Hospitality Management from University of South Florida in 2009 and a Master's degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management from the University of Central Florida (Rosen College) in 2012.

She says USM helped make that happen for her. "It's a good stepping stone in your progression post high school," she says.

In her creative work, she hopes to craft a brand that "reflects the St. Martin identity."
