Thank
you
for
this
opportunity
.
I
am
a
final
-
year
undergraduate
in
Computer
Science
,
and
I
have
always
believed
that
education
has
the
power
to
change
the
direction
of
a
life
.
Coming
from
a
family
where
neither
of
my
parents
had
the
chance
to
attend
university
,
I
learned
early
that
consistent
effort
and
genuine
curiosity
open
doors
that
circumstance
would
otherwise
leave
closed
.
That
mindset
has
shaped
how
I
approach
my
academics
—
I
have
maintained
a
strong
academic
record
while
balancing
part
-
time
work
—
and
also
how
I
serve
my
community
,
tutoring
younger
students
and
mentoring
first
-
generation
learners
who
are
navigating
the
same
uncertainties
I
once
faced
.
I
want
to
use
technology
to
make
education
more
accessible
,
and
I
hope
to
build
a
career
in
software
development
focused
on
learning
tools
for
under
-
resourced
students
.
This
scholarship
would
relieve
the
financial
pressure
that
often
limits
my
focus
,
allowing
me
to
dedicate
myself
more
fully
to
my
studies
and
research
.
More
than
financial
support
,
it
would
affirm
that
my
determination
is
seen
and
that
I
belong
here
—
and
I
intend
to
honour
that
belief
by
giving
back
to
this
institution
and
to
the
wider
community
.
