Robert Lawyer Memorial Scholarship
I'm currently attending my senior year, gaining valuable knowledge that will aid in growing my career as a Legal Professional. I have a passion for equal rights and I’ve dedicated myself to bettering the lives of others.
Currently I work as a Legal Assistant helping crime victims, providing resources, and assisting with applications for benefits. I have helped file guardianships, conduct legal research, transcriptions, gather evidence in discovery, and I've taken numerous law courses at my local university. I also worked advocating for climate justice in Alaska with 10 Tribal governments and assisted in their communication with the federal government; to obtain disaster relief, community relocation, and equitable treatment. I helped in obtaining, programming, and distributing technological support to tribes so they could perform research in regards to climate change.
I plan to continue helping communities in need once I receive my degree. I have a history of civic duty that involves community based initiatives that include; low income housing, community improvement projects, and more. As a child I lived through homelessness, abusive households, and struggled through life as an adolescent, so, juvenile justice, family law, discrimination law, and helping crime victims will be a focus of my efforts to make the world a better place.
I want to give a voice to those who are unheard, provide avenues for self-sufficiency, and educate people on their options. I think living and experiencing these situations first hand provides me with a unique perspective and advocacy ability. I understand the struggle and hope that experience can open communications that are difficult to obtain. I have worked in the hospitality industry as an Operations Manager; Property Manager for Low Income and Elderly Families; Business Insurance; and now in the legal realm.
I have received numerous awards and recognition throughout my career.
I received a citation of appreciation on Civil Rights from Fran Ulmer(Ex Lieutenant Governor and Former Chancellor of the University of Alaska Anchorage) for my efforts at my current University. I have received a "Star of the Industry Award' from Alaska Hotel and Lodging corporation for my work in hospitality. I am a member of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars. I currently volunteer for my community as a Board Director for our Homeowners Association.
I also have four children where I am the sole provider and I influence them to be engaged in community driven activities as well. I plan to bring this high level of involvement to the table; my civic engagement, community justice, and hard work will be used to push reform on various social issues.
I'm honored that you are considering my application for the Robert Lawyer Memorial Scholarship. If you choose me, I will be grateful that we partnered in making the world a better place. Thank you for listening and I look forward to hearing from you soon
