“I want to begin by sharing my thankfulness for my mom for believing in me, and my dad, for always being there for me,” she said.

In one sweet photo from the ceremony, the newly-minted graduate was snapped smiling in her cap and gown alongside her aunt Samantha Smith and her half-brother Kross, whose mother is Lauren London.
