Dear Angela Brown, Winning the LGBTQIA+ in Cybersecurity Scholarship means the world to me. It signifies not just a personal achievement, but a validation of my commitment to empowering vulnerable communities through technology and cybersecurity education. As someone who has faced challenges based on my identity, this scholarship represents a powerful acknowledgment of the importance of diversity in the field of cybersecurity. It gives me the opportunity to continue my education with a renewed sense of purpose. More importantly, it allows me to expand my mission of helping marginalized individuals protect themselves online. This award motivates me to keep pushing forward, to break barriers, and to advocate for those who have often been left behind in the digital world. Thank you for your belief in my vision and for giving me this opportunity. I am committed to using this award to further my education and make a positive impact in both the cybersecurity field and my community. Sincerely, Louis Christian Tabalon
