Moreover, Abena has, in addition, received an offer from the highly competitive Microsoft Research Internship Program for summer 2021.
"However, between processing period of OPT immigration work auth, transferring sevis, moving cross country, & starting PhD in Aug etc., Abena made the difficult decision to forego internship this summer.
"This was disappointing for her, but not the last you’ll hear of her w/ Microsoft. Clearly #Microsoft has an eye for the Boadi-Agyemang sisters!" Abena's excited sister said.
According to Akosua, she decided to share Abena's story as a way of celebrating the genius young lady for her admirable grit through undergrad, journey to grad school, immigration, and accepting only to decline an offer to do what she loves.
In another exciting report, it is one heck of a time to be alive in South Africa as the number of graduates has increased exponentially. Another inspiring post has made it online thanks to a gorgeous young woman who is now also qualified.
In a heartwarming and super motivational post made by the proud graduate, @BassieM_, she expressed her joy at now being a Town and Regional planner. Her post features a photo of herself rocking a skin-tight red dress underneath her graduation gown.
"A Town & Regional Planning graduate.," she gushed.
As beautiful as she is, you can bet she received a number of compliments, congratulatory messages and well wishes with her career going forward.
