\u201cI am so beyond blessed to be able to grow a personal relationship with Dr. Burger. Not only has she given me the chance to continue my education at a high level, but she has also offered herself and her knowledge to [the beneficiaries of her scholarship], so that we may take as much from this experience as we can.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe advice Mr. Lam has given me in the past has really pushed me forward in my career goals, which I continue to appreciate. His message the last time we met of, “think big! just try!” continues to ring in my ears as I search out my path and the options I have.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
