Foundation Spotlight!
🎓 Graduate: Ashley Matul Marroquin

This week, we’re proud to highlight Ashley Matul Marroquin, a recent graduate of James Sprunt Community College! Ashley earned her Associate in Science degree just one year after graduating from North Duplin Jr./Sr. High School. During her time at JSCC, Ashley was a Presidential Scholar and completed her degree with a perfect 4.0 GPA! 

Ashley dreams of becoming an Optometrist (Eye Doctor), an idea which was sparked after one of her own eye appointments. That inspiration led her to pursue the sciences, and this fall, she’ll take the next step in her journey by attending the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to study Statistics. 

A first-generation high school and college graduate, Ashley credits her success to her family and friends for their constant support. She’s especially proud to have graduated alongside one of her closest friends from high school. Within her friend group, Ashley says a spirit of healthy competition helped push each of them to pursue higher education goals. 

After graduation, Ashley plans to continue working while exploring her next academic step—either a bachelor’s degree or an accelerated master’s program! 

💡 Fun Fact: Before choosing Optometry, Ashley wanted to study Computer Science to design the kinds of video games she enjoys playing! 
🍎 Instructor Shout-Out: Ashley says she loved taking MAT-152 with Mrs. Morgan Smith, calling her “an amazing teacher!” 
📣 Ashley’s Advice to Future Students: Ashley shares that one of her biggest challenges was committing to a clear path, even though she’s always loved science and math. Finding her focus took time, but she encourages others to explore and stay persistent. 

“Utilize this amazing opportunity to its fullest potential. Take your time, do your research, and use your two years here to plan your studies strategically. Take different classes to help you narrow your focus. TAKE YOUR TIME—eventually something will come to you. Even if it’s not your final path, keep going and something else will fall into place!” 

Ashley, we’re so proud of everything you’ve accomplished and can’t wait to see what’s next for you. Best of luck at UNC-Chapel Hill and beyond!
