TCF Scholarship Recipient- Shandice Johnson

 

I began my college career torn between pursuing law or medicine. I quickly realized neither one was for me. On a whim, I had taken a Computer Science course. It was love at first byte. I made the scary choice to switch majors and switch schools. It was pretty much starting from scratch but I haven’t regretted it for a moment. I landed an excellent internship as a software engineer that turned into a full time position that I love. I am so grateful for the funding and resources The CIRI Foundation provided me. I don’t know if I would have been able to finish without them. It was a long road to graduate and The CIRI Foundation made that road a far less frightening to travel. Thank you!
