A table of four to a table of ten almost overnight. The question of what happens next is life-altering. My brothers, Dustin, and Dalton, and I were faced with devastation very young, not understanding what it would mean. Later I began to appreciate all the obstacles that I faced as a five- year-old. I always struggled with why it was my mom who was taken. My life continued to fall apart. Her absence was frustrating and confusing at the time and still affects me. Today, it’s those times that inspire me to stay positive and do my best. As a five-year-old, my mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at 36. Her condition progressed rapidly. My mom made the decision for us to move to her cousin’s home. Despite an already full house, my cousin Billie and her husband Mike welcomed us in wholeheartedly, but this life situation was a struggle. With our four plus Billie and Mike and their four children, a table of four expanded to a table of ten. Then my mom passed away, leaving us feeling lost. At the time I was too young to understand death. I could not understand how someone could be gone so fast. My family provided the support to help me overcome those fears. I began to be more positive about the future. My older brothers and I all have different fathers, things were complicated. A few years later Dalton decided to live with his dad and Dustin moved in with his aunt. This made life easier by being the only additional child. I was unable to move in with my dad, he was not interested in being a part of my life. My brother, Dalton was graduating high school and enlisting in the United States Marines Corps. His father offered for me to go and live with them in Wellington, Florida. I was excited and said yes. After moving I began a new school. Dalton loved fishing and I did too. It was at this time, I realized that my future, my career choices, and life would be tied to the ocean. Then, I began to investigate what I needed to do to achieve this goal. I discovered I would need a degree in marine science. Then, two weeks after moving in, at 3 o’clock in the morning, my brother was shot and killed while sleeping. I was ten and devastated again. For the second time, a family member was taken in such a sudden and unfair way. I struggled to understand. Before I could process the feelings of losing my brother, I moved back in with Billie, avoiding the madness of police, investigators, and court. So, I began the sixth grade back in Frostproof, I became very quiet and withdrawn. Things changed when I began athletics. Sports helped me branch out, finding love and support from my teammates. With the stability, love, and support of my family, things got easier and I became stronger. As a student-athlete and an honor roll student, I’ve managed to continue that performance into my senior year. Also continuing sports, progressing from cross country in middle school years to volleyball and weightlifting from freshman to senior year. Never quitting or giving up. I have found that pushing through adversity will determine what I can accomplish. Now, those goals I once thought unreachable are beginning to come into focus. Proving myself to doubters and overcoming adversity is all I have known. I assure you will never see a candidate more focused and committed to achieving success.

Julie Adams Memorial Scholarship – Women in STEM
From a young age me and my mother with my two brothers loved the ocean. Each of us kids having our own dad and all out of the picture. We were very close. Spending much time at the ocean and bonding. Although at the age of 5 my mother passed away from pancreatic cancer. Not having much memory of her other than us being together at the beach. I was forever connected to the ocean as it was our place. A place I can treasure and hold dearly. Although I feel a need now to help and conserve our beaches to be able to enjoy them, or else they will be gone. At least with the rate of how much they are depleting from our own actions. A few years passed and my brothers and I loved fishing. Being close to the ocean in anyway was the best way to spend the day. Although I had to overcome another tragedy. I lost one of my brothers. Living in a apartment complex at the time. Someone attempted a car robbery at 3am and sadly found my brother asleep with his window open. Ending in a murder scene I lost again someone who truly means so much to me. At the time I was eleven, so probably enduring the two most hardest challenges I will ever face as young as did. It really has left me with an incentive to go and be great. Now with it being me and my oldest brother left, the ocean is our favorite place to be. Once there we are always thinking of our family we’ve lost. Being a place where we can still feel close to them. My goal now is to be a marine biologist. So that way I can help to clean and take care of the ocean making it a place for others to enjoy as much as I do. If you’d grant me this wish making my dreams come true. I’d love to make the oceans safe for your grandkids and their kids and so on. I will be not only taking care of the animals and sea life. I would also love to take care of our beaches. The places we all love to go but no one takes care for of. Attempting to accomplish a clean and safe environment. I wish to invent something. Something that will used by many making it easier for us to take care of the ocean. It will be used and widely known. As I hope by then others to will realize the importance of helping our oceans. Rather than just using and abusing them for our own purposes and needs and wants. One will want to see them prosper and grow tired of hearing of a death of an animal do to being suffocated from a grocery bag. That has a one time use then to never be used again rather thrown into the trash. Although it doesn't stay there for long. It instead makes its way into our oceans. I’m unsure of what it will be yet at such a young age. I do know I want it to be something big, important and widely known. That you will remember helping me and be happy for making my wishes come true because it sure would. Hoping to make something innovative that combines our new world and laid back way of living as well as the oceans as they were here before us. While of course I know that it is quite impossible to get them as if no one lived here. But my dream is to protect them my whole life. Creating an end to our endangered species list. As well as horror stories told on the news of oil leaks and reefs ruined all over oceans edge. Most importantly of all I wish to be apart of removing our oceans waste. This is something so sad that I hold close to heart. As I never want to see the oceans disappear and definitely not due to our own human species fault. I wish to do everything in my capability to make this dream become reality. Although to do so it starts with knowledge, but to gain my degree. I need your help to be able to afford it.With this being completed I will feel a since of completion for my lost loved ones. As well as a sense of making them happy. Making wishes comes true, thanks to you. If you would do me a favor and grant me with this scholarship.

While of course I know that it is quite impossible to get them as if no one lived here. But my dream is to protect them my whole life. Creating an end to our endangered species list. As well as horror stories told on the news of oil leaks and reefs ruined all over oceans edge. Most importantly of all I wish to be apart of removing our oceans waste. This is something so sad that I hold close to heart. As I never want to see the oceans dissapear and definetly not due to our own human species fault. With this being completed I will feel a since of completion for my lost loved ones. As well as a sense of making them happy. Making wishes comes true.
