Reiji Minato - With Mom (Cal Poly Pomona College of Business Class of 2017)

Giving my mom, Nida (Neth) Panes-Micu, a very hearty hug as she's one of the biggest motivators during my time as a business student at Cal Poly Pomona, 2014-2016. I owe it to her for making it up to this point. Here's to more graduations to come in various colleges throughout California, Mom!

Date & Place: June 11, 2017 at California State Polytechnic University Pomona (Cal Poly Pomona - CPP) 3801 West Temple Avenue, in Pomona, Los Angeles County, California 91768, United States
