My name is Ava Remesch, and I am a current senior in high school with plans on attending college. Some of my hobbies include painting, going on walks, listening to music, and playing with my three boston terrier pups! I am the treasurer of the National Art Honor Society at my school, and I am also a member of the National Honor Society as well as the National Spanish Honor Society and Rho Kappa. I am also a four-year varsity softball athlete and a two-year captain of the team. Since I have experience as a leader, I know how to take charge and make things happen. I am interested in attending College of Charleston in South Carolina, but due to the little financial help I have received so far, my aspirations to go there may be unrealistic. If I am awarded this scholarship, it will help in giving me more financial assistance and overall support my dream of pursing a career in the hospitality industry! Ever since I was a little girl my Mom and I would watch shows on the TV together about planning weddings and the process that people had to go through to make the day happen. As I have grown up, I can now see myself pursuing that as my career. I have an artistic eye and I love adding my own personal creative flare to everything I do. I want to have my own wedding venue with many choices for the couple in order to make their day as personal and as memorable as possible. Since having my own venue is a very large dream, in order to build my way up to that, I want to be able to provide people with the best service and positive experiences through hotels and restaurants. Exposing myself to these areas of work will prepare me well to provide the best service for all. I will leave a positive impact on the world by changing how people serve and showing how to give everyone they encounter a positive experience. Scholarships like this one will help me achieve these goals which is why I feel I am the right candidate to win!
