Today I’m excited to share Olivia Barson, a recent graduate from the University of Arizona who is headed to Creighton University’s Phoenix Campus this fall to pursue her Doctor of Pharmacy degree.

Olivia’s mom, Kelly, is a friend of mine, and when we were talking last fall, we realized Olivia and my son Mac knew each other and were friends in Tucson. I always love when little connections come together, and it makes this share feel especially fun.

When Olivia arrived in Tucson as a freshman, she decided to get involved in Greek life, which helped her meet people and feel more connected on campus. She loved that time, but as her classes became more focused, she decided to step away so she could put more time into her academics and her future plans in pharmacy.

I asked Olivia to share one of the most meaningful parts of her college experience, she talked about working for the R. Ken Coit College of Pharmacy. In that role, she helped share stories and updates through newsletters, articles, and other communications that connected students, faculty, staff, and the broader community. It was a great fit for Olivia and gave her the chance to build relationships throughout the university while growing her communication, leadership, and teamwork skills.

When Olivia looks back on college, what stands out most are the friendships and connections. The late-night talks, study sessions, walks along the Mall, random adventures, and trips to Bubbe’s Bagels are the moments she says made U of A feel like home.

Her advice to someone just starting college is to get involved, try new things, and be open to meeting new people. More importantly, she believes staying true to yourself makes all the difference in finding the people and opportunities meant for you. As Olivia shared, “Join clubs, get involved in Greek life, attend campus events, or just introduce yourself to someone new. Some of the most meaningful experiences and friendships come from putting yourself out there.”

This fall, Olivia will begin her PharmD program at Creighton, and I know she is going to bring that same focus, heart, and openness into this next chapter.

Today I’m sharing Jayme Brown Jayme Brown who recently graduated from Clark University with her MBA, concentrating in finance and finishing in the top 20% of her class. This comes just one year after she earned her B.S. in Business Management with minors in Marketing and Studio Art, graduating with highest honors, all while competing as an NCAA student athlete.

This year, Jayme completed her final season on Clark’s soccer team as a co-captain and received the M. Hazel Hughes Award, an annual honor recognizing dedication and performance that enriched the tradition of Clark Athletics.
During her MBA year, Jayme was also a member of Beta Gamma Sigma and Beta Alpha Psi, two academic honor societies recognizing achievement in business and accounting.

As an undergraduate, she served as publicity officer for DECA, participated in the Student Athlete Advisory Committee, helped establish Alpha Phi at Clark, and was the first student selected for the School of Business Honors Research Program.

I asked Jayme what her favorite memory was from her time at Clark. She loved playing in the conference championship during her freshman year and seeing so many friends and classmates travel and support the team. She still remembers the feeling when the starting whistle blew.

As a new graduate, Jayme took a leap and moved to Boston with her golden retriever, ironically named Boston. She is embracing the excitement and uncertainty of what’s next as she looks for a role that allows her to combine her analytical strengths with her creative instincts. And as if that isn’t enough, she launched Jayme Brown Consulting. Through her business, she helps companies develop clear, actionable marketing strategies designed to increase visibility, engagement, and long-term growth. It is a great way for her to continue learning and building her skills as she explores career opportunities.

Her advice for someone starting a new chapter is to take the risk, even when it feels uncomfortable. There may never be a better time to bet on yourself, learn what you enjoy, and step outside your comfort zone. I love her reminder to bet on yourself!

Today I’m excited to kick off our Summer Senior Sunday Shares with sisters Kate and Kennedy McKeighan who are celebrating two big milestones this year. There’s something especially meaningful about seeing one sister graduate from the University of Arizona with honors just as the other prepares to begin her own college experience there this fall.

Kate recently graduated with honors from the University of Arizona with a B.S. in Nutritional Sciences. Because Kate is dating my son Mac, I have had the chance to personally watch her work toward this goal, and it was such a treat to be there in Tucson to celebrate her graduation.

During college, Kate truly made the most of her experience. She served as Vice President of Recruitment for Alpha Delta Pi, worked as a clinical intern at SPARCC Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, and was a nursing assistant at Casas Adobes Post Acute and Rehabilitation. She also served as a peer mentor within the College of Agriculture, Life and Environmental Sciences and volunteered with Banner University Medical Center, Tucson Medical Center Children’s Clinics, and Tucson Village Farm.

One of Kate’s favorite memories was living in her sorority house during her junior year with her closest friends. Her advice to students beginning college is to put themselves out there, try new things, and meet new people because the years go by quickly. Kate is now working as a medical scribe at Valley Allergy Clinic in Phoenix before applying to Physician Assistant school. She’s looking forward to continuing to learn and gaining more experience caring for patients.

Kennedy recently graduated from Horizon High School, where she played varsity badminton. Not only was she involved at school but also worked as a front desk agent at EOS Kids Club and as a clerk at Mountain View Pharmacy. One of her favorite parts of high school was meeting new people and joining the badminton team with friends.

This fall, Kennedy is headed to the University of Arizona, where she plans to study law.
