I couldn’t possibly express how grateful I am to be selected as an MCSF recipient. Michelle was one of my closest friends, and I have thought about her every day. She is one of the greatest people I have ever had the privilege to know, and I have strived to be more like her in all of my actions. Being selected as an MCSF recipient makes me feel like I have succeeded in that goal. However, my journey is far from over. For many years now, I have dreamed of entering the medical field and becoming a Cardio-thoracic Surgeon. I plan to use this money to help put me through college and medical school, and eventually give back so that more students can do the same. I am so honored to receive this award, and I will always strive to live free like Michelle 🙂
