Tyresse Miller

NLCP Class of 2020

Elmhurst University, BA

Looking back, Tyresse thinks as much about overcoming challenges as he does the good times. "College has its ups and downs, but you have to learn to push through for yourself. College benefited me by helping feel more accomplished and helping me get better at my craft so I can have a great career."


When asked what advice he has for future Pact Scholars, Tyresse says they should "Remember one key thing: your outcome depends on you. No one is there to hold your hand. You have to turn assignments in on time and make sure to build a connection with your teachers. Your effort will take you places."
