Tonie Robie:

It is truly an honor to stand before you today. Congratulations to the classes of 2024 and 2025. You've done it. Do I think it's a good idea for alumni to get involved? Absolutely. It presents a community where individuals can come together for a common goal and use each other as a resource. We need more of that. And I'd love to see the alumni community grow.

And I'll do whatever I can to make that happen. My journey to and through college was anything but traditional. I don't know if you know this, but I'm not a spring chicken. When I went back for my degree, I was apprehensive in general. I embraced what it was going to be for me, so it allowed me to really understand how to be comfortable with my own self while I'm doing my work and my studies.

Today I stand before you premium as the founder and owner of HR Compliance Solutions, LLC. I really feel that Rasmussen prepared me for this next step. Whatever age you are. Stay focused. Be prepared. Keep your eyes on the goal and remain positive. And reach out to your alumni. I have the confidence that I need from my degree program to walk into this next chapter of my life, and feel like I'm going to make it.

My name is Tonie Roby, and I'm a Rasmussen University alum.

“Those core pieces of HR that I took away from Rasmussen don't change. They're adaptable to my clients. I have the confidence that I need for my degree program to walk into this next chapter of my life and feel like I'm going to make it.”
