Sharks Speak: Is there a woman that inspires you and why?

We talked to NSU students about their presence on campus, asking:

Is there a woman that inspires you and why?

“The woman that inspires me the most would be Ronda Rousey because she inspires women to stand up for themselves and I aspire to be like her,” said Joey Bowman, sophomore business management major.
“The women that inspire me are my big sister, Melissa, and my mom. Whenever I need help, if I can’t go to one of them, I go to the other. I owe them both a lot for making me the woman I am today,” said Samantha Archer, sophomore finance and economics major.
“The woman that inspires me is my mother. She was always taking care of others including my younger siblings and her parents. She did a lot to teach us well and take care of those around us. She inspires me because she gives me a sense of perseverance to keep going even when things are tough," said Michael Toro, senior biology major.
“The woman that inspires me is my great-grandmother, Lydia Luna. She grew up pretty poor in Puerto Rico, so she had to build everything herself. She was a single mother who made it out of Puerto Rico by moving to Ohio and establishing a new life for herself. She reminds me that there is always a drive to keep going even when things are difficult,” said Jayleen Spaulding, freshman marine biology major.
