23-Year-Old Haitian Immigrant Earns Doctor of Pharmacy Degree from Florida A&M University

At just 23, Haitian immigrant Anne Zamor earned her Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Florida A&M University, overcoming language barriers and personal challenges to celebrate a journey of resilience, faith, and cultural pride.

Anne Zamor, a 23-year-old Haitian immigrant, has proudly earned her Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree from Florida A&M University (FAMU) in the United States—an accomplishment she describes as a testament to her resilience, faith, and cultural pride.

Her Journey

Anne moved to the U.S. at 15 without knowing English, driven by hope and determination to build a better future. By age 17, she enrolled in FAMU’s College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, where she adapted to a new culture while holding firmly to her Haitian roots.

“To the culture that made me who I am today—thank you. Everything I know and everything I am is because I am a Haitian woman,” she shared.

Overcoming Obstacles

Her academic path was filled with long nights, early mornings, and emotional challenges.

“God, thank you for your unwavering favor over my life. When I didn’t think I would make it, you showed me it was already written!”

She credited her classmates, known as “TwoFive,” and the College of Love and Charity for providing support and shaping her character.

“FAMU welcomed a 17-year-old girl and turned her into a strong, confident woman.”

What’s Next?

Now officially a Doctor of Pharmacy, Anne is ready to impact lives through medicine.

“I became a doctor because nothing I do is little. Thank you, FAMU, for this degree.”
