After my time spent interning with PepsiCo, I know that the beverage industry is a perfect fit and something I want to do long term. As a future packaging engineer, I find what the beverage is packaged in can help sell the product, and I enjoy the innovation opportunities and technologies that come along with this type of market. I am honored to have been considered, and truly appreciate the award. The scholarship will be applied toward my last semester of school before graduating in May 2015. I'll then start the exciting pursuit of a full-time position in the packaging field.
