Quote:

“To be a Dolphin Scholar is not only to carry forward the legacy of my father’s service with purpose and pride, but to also honor other veterans who have done the same. I honor the strength and sacrifice submariner families have given by striving for excellence in all that I do. This scholarship is not just about the support provided by the foundation, but it is a reminder of where I come from and the responsibility I carry forward.”
