Berkeley City College Associate in Science for Transfer Business Administration
I am honored to be a recipient of the Oakland A’s scholarship. As a non-traditional re-entry student, the cost of college can be daunting, and balancing school and family responsibilities is a constant challenge. This scholarship will significantly aid me in furthering my education at the Haas School of Business at UC Berkeley next fall.
My goal has always been to create greater and more equitable opportunities for anyone looking to uplift their life. I plan to achieve this at Haas and beyond in my professional endeavors.
Once again, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the A’s for making this dream possible. My family and I are extremely grateful. Thank you.

I am deeply honored and humbled to be one of the recent recipients of the prestigious Oakland A’s Sports Management Endowed Scholarship. Your faith and investment in my future have left me profoundly grateful. As an aspiring Data Scientist/mathematician and athlete, I am eager to demonstrate the
common ground between sports and science. This journey began when I left Citer Soleil, Haiti, and I am committed to one day establishing an accessible university for all branches of science. This scholarship is a game-changer for my future, and I am thrilled to represent the A’s organization as a scholarship recipient.
