Jawalla youth earns academic honours after overcoming pandemic hardships

Danella Clement

Throughout her academic life, 21-year-old Danella Clement faced quite a number of challenges but her final year at the University of Bedfordshire proved to be the most difficult and challenging due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the challenges, Clement graduated with honours in Business Administration from the university last month.

Clement was born in Georgetown but spent most of her childhood in the community of Jawalla in Region Seven. She still resides in the community but had moved to the city to further her education at the Campbellville Secondary School when she was 11 and later at the Nations School of Business and Management, where she attained a diploma in Business Management and Marketing. Under Nations Inc., she enrolled in the University of Bedforeshire.
