Michelle Obama: Like the First Lady and many of you, success wasn't handed to me. I worked hard in high school, went to a public college, joined @TeachForAmerica, and accepted an unpaid internship at the @WhiteHouse that ultimately landed me a job. Now I work for the First Lady, and it's an incredible honor to work for someone who continues to inspire me each and every day. It's amazing what you can do when you are determined to #ReachHigher! #BlackGirlsRock -Kristin
