Ever since I was little, construction has been a large area of interest for me.I've always loved being around construction and being a part of it.From being raised by my grand parents, they own a in-ground pool construction company.My grandfather would begin with the designing, back then it was pencil to paper unlike today's AutoCAD but take a client's vision and turn it into their reality.Seeing the transformation from start to finish was so admirable as being able to physically see your accomplishment.As I grew older, the passion followed me and I did whatever I could to get myself around the construction field.I found my hands on assisting with various construction projects which have broadened my scope and knowledge of many aspects of the career.I became licensed in real estate as I was focused residentially on being an asset to multiple investors.Learning the tricks of the trade in real estate alongside realizing it's not what you know, it's who you know in that specific career field.My attention to detail and quality became more apparent having experienced the difference in attempting to sell a quality house versus throwing together of poor quality and detail.Because of my passion for real estate and construction, I knew that a degree in building construction would be perfect for me.  I believe that my love for construction will allow me to succeed in the industry because I will love my career, and I will always enjoy learning new things about the industry.  My interest in construction has made school much more enjoyable because I am learning about something that I am truly passionate about.I am completing a certificate in construction supervisors working towards my Associates in Applied Science then planning on transferring to a four-year college or university.My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a bachelor's degree that would assist me in pursuing a commercial construction supervisor or project management role.On the other hand, my career vision is to assist in closing the gender gap within the construction industry.However, I am certain that if I do not complete my college degree I will never have the opportunity to achieve my career goals.

Ever since I was a little, construction has been a large area of interest for me. I've always loved being around construction, and being a part of it, from being raised by my grand parents, which own a in-ground pool construction company. My grandfather would begin with the detailed design of a client's vision and turn it into their backyard reality. Seeing the transformation from start to finish was so admirable as being able to physically see your accomplishment. As I grew older, the passion followed me, and I did whatever I could to get myself around the construction field. I found myself hands on assisting with various construction projects which has broadened my scope and knowledge of many aspects of the career. I obtained my Texas Real Estate License where I became further involved with residential remodeling having multiple investing clients. I knew that a degree in building construction would be perfect for me.  I believe that my love for construction will allow me succeed in the industry because I will love my career, and I will always enjoy learning new things about the industry.  My interest in construction has made school much more enjoyable because I am learning about something that I am truly passionate about. I am completing a certificate in construction supervision working towards my Associates in Applied Science. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a bachelor’s degree that would assist me in pursuing a commercial construction supervision or project management role. On the other hand, my career vision is to assist in closing the gender gap within the construction industry. However, I am certain that if I do not complete my college degree I could never have the opportunity to achieve my career goals.

I believe I deserve this scholarship because it will help me achieve my future plans and long-term goals. By furthering my education in biology, I can work towards my career goals in the medical field. I aim to make a difference in my community, and this scholarship will absolutely be the difference-maker when it comes to affording the education I need to do that and give back in the future.
