Amanda Fernandez

Bio

Hey! I'm Amanda Fernandez, a senior from upstate New York who loves reading, theatre, true crime, and volunteering. I will be attending Fordham University in the fall. I work at a child advocacy law firm, and I'd love to become a family attorney or a forensic psychologist. With a 4.0 GPA, great SAT, ACT, and AP scores, and dozens of volunteer hours, I'm a great candidate for your scholarship. I'm committed to the people I serve, and your scholarship would help me help more people in college! Thanks in advance for your time and consideration!
