CCBC Student, Cybersecurity
Kalla came into CCBC not knowing what she wanted to pursue, but CCBC's academic advisors helped her find a pathway just for her.
Before coming to CCBC, Kalla was known for being smart, eccentric, and bubbly. She wanted to attend a college that would suit her personality and provide her with the best education.
"CCBC was the perfect match for me to challenge the smart side of myself," said Kalla. "I've been able to grow academically and do it affordably with the scholarships I've received."
At first, Kalla didn't know which direction to go academically, but her academic advisors introduced her to cybersecurity, which sparked her interest. In addition to her coursework toward an associate degree in cybersecurity, she actively participated in CCBC’s student life culture, serving on the Student Government Association, joining various clubs, working in the college’s bookstore and making many friends along the way.
