By For a young woman with more accomplishments than you could imagine, you might be surprised to learn, Winslyn Parrish embraces failures like an old friend. Whether it’s serving as sophomore class president during her time at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University in Tallahassee or leading membership recruitment and retention for national community-service-based organization SISTUHS, Inc., following the coronavirus pandemic, every win in her life comes in the face of professional and personal loss.
When I ask her if there’s anything on her mind during our conversation, she admits that while being a 2022 Glamour College Woman of the Year is a great honor, it’s tinged with sadness as well. Nearly a year ago, in November 2021, the 22-year-old lost her mother to multiple sclerosis.Parrish, a master's student at FAMU studying health administration, says her undergraduate time on campus was filled with recruitment events for prospective students and duties on the school’s royal court, yet she was struggling to stay afloat.
It wasn’t until her community and her organizations rallied behind her that she was finally able to look at her homework again, setting out to prove that everything to come would be in memory of her mother. She finished the semester with a 4.0 GPA.She’s now a master’s student back at the same college that taught her what it meant to be a resilient Black woman.
Parrish is continuing her education with a master’s of health administration thanks to her passion for equal access and informed care regardless of someone’s medical or economic condition. It’s a decision that stems from years of caring for her mother throughout childhood.
