Rock Hill, S.C.----When I think about how I've gotten to where I am today, the relationships and experiences I had at Wingate are undoubtedly the core of my story. When I first began at Wingate in 2006, I, just like many other freshmen, had little idea of what I wanted to do with my life. Being 800 miles away from home, I was quickly forced to break out of my shell and enter a new world of independence and responsibility.
