Congratulations to Trynity Scott- RF-LAMBDA Memorial Scholarship Recipient in Honor of Lieutenant Colonel Mario "Sugar Bear" Carazo
Trynity is currently in her second year at Barret, The Honors College at Arizona State University, majoring in marketing. She says she has always loved art and hopes to one day own her own international marketing firm. She is also involved in community service projects such as running blood drives for the Red Cross and volunteering at her local food pantry. She also enjoys playing volleyball. Trynity's father was KIA while serving in Iraq.
In her words, "The impact of this scholarship has allowed me to strive for my goals and strive to live up to the legacy my father died to create."
We know your father is very proud of you and all of your hard work. Congratulations!
