    What does a scholarship from CU mean to you?
    My scholarship from CU serves as a reminder of my ability to earn an excellent education, go forth, and make a positive impact on the world.  It means that somebody believes that I have the capacity to do great things.  This scholarship has afforded me the ability to explore and immerse myself in Chem E Car, the Conference on World Affairs, Society of Women Engineers, and BOLD Scholars. I am so grateful for the opportunity to  experience all that I have in my undergraduate education.

    What does it mean to be a Forever Buff?
    A Forever Buff takes the mission and guiding principles of the University of Colorado Boulder and applies them through all aspects of life. 

    What’s your favorite spot on campus?
    The Koenig Alumni House and the Engineering Center (it grew on me over time).
