Thanks to Kids’ Chance of California, l’ve been able to pursue my dream of attending USC and working toward my degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in Marketing and a minor in Data Science. I am actively involved in Gamma lota Sigma, where I’ve built connections in the risk and insurance industry and recently completed an internship through the Wholesale, Specialty, and Surplus Lines Insurance Association to work at the Excess Line Association of New York. Opportunities like this have helped me grow both professionally and personally.

None of this would have been possible without the support of Kid’s Chance, which has relieved the financial burden my family faced after the loss of my father. This scholarship allows me to focus on my education, seize career opportunities, and honor my mom, my biggest role model. My journey has taught me resilience and gratitude, and I look forward to one day giving back to Kid’s Chance so other students facing hardship can achieve their dreams, too.
