I am a first-generation college student studying Mechanical Engineering. While at UNC Charlotte I have developed a strong passion for volunteering through the National Society of Black Engineers chapter and W.S. Lee College of Engineering Leadership academy to promote stem education in the Charlotte community.  

Academically, I have continued to excel, earning placement on the Chancellor’s List for the third consecutive semester while continually striving to deepen my knowledge of engineering. The impact of the Family Council Scholarship will allow me to focus more on my academic journey to pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering and reduce my financial burden. Lastly, I would like to thank all members of the Family Council for your commitment to supporting such a great cause.
