Bio

I am a highly ambitious mom who wishes to break the glass ceiling into the business world by getting an MBA. Upon completion of my MBA, I see the door opening for me to be an innovative leader who creates growth and impact for any organization, whether it be a non-profit or a private business. I feel that I am my best self and doing my best work when I'm helping others, so I am looking for a career path where I can lead and influence positive change on a larger scale. I want to utilize my creative, out of the box thinking to strategically plan for success and leave a legacy for future generations. I won't stop until I'm proud, and I hope to use my future successes to open doors for others. I am enrolled in the MBA graduate program at Clemson University and will be starting coursework in January 2021. I plan to use any scholarships received to directly pay for tuition to reduce my overall student loan burden. Thank you for your consideration.

Austin Kramer Music Scholarship
Though released years ago, I found the song "Rise" by Katy Perry just a few months ago; at a time in my life where my core was already shaken and then doctors found the kind of severe medical issue where one could literally say that the vultures were circling. This song became the inspiration to find the strength within myself to transform, call upon my angels, and rise. This playlist became the eclectic mix of songs that carried me through the hardest time in my life and inspired me to rise and thrive despite the adversity.
