So how did you come across Project 150?

Back when I was in high school here at Western High School in Las Vegas, I was in a dual enrollment program with CSN where I was exposed to college level courses and they introduced us to Senia.

As the programs manager at Project 150, I handle the different programs that we offer.

So the workshops, Betty's Boutique and the scholarship program that we have here, providing those free resources to our high school students and current college students.

So how does the application process work for these scholarships?

So we have now grown with the times and we are electronic based.

Bet a lot of kids are grateful for an easy scholarship process.

Yeah I hope we are the easiest.

It was very straightforward.

Questions were very clear and you just go straight through it.

One of the biggest difficulties of trying to go to college is being able to pay for it, Right.

And as soon as I heard I was, I was very thrilled to be able to know that I can start my college journey.

All right.

Absolutely.

I know it's a struggle for a lot of people.

And scholarships like this that are nice and easy to go through and are always a blessing.

You know, for those people.

how do you think that your scholarship program may stand out from some others?

And in the valley.

We not only just help them their freshman year, we want to see them graduate.

So we've seen a nonstop graduates from the beginning, and it's something that we're grateful for and able to be a part of their journey.

What's your favorite part about being able to work or be able to like to work with these students?

So I've been here for seven years now and it never felt was just being able to connect with the student.

I believe Jacob, the one that you guys interviewed, just having to be able to relate to them and connect with them.

Building that relationship is really important to me, not only with our donors but with our students, because a lot of times some of these students don't have someone to be there to support them, to say, You can do it.

And so that's the best part about working here at Project 150 is we're making sure we're right there along the way as the students are going through their lives.

That was great.
