Alexis Sturrock, of Orange, is entering college freshman and a finalist for a $2000 scholarship. 

“In order to win it, I have to have the most people visit my link to my article,” Sturrock wrote in an email. “I could really use the money, college is extremely expensive, and this could quite literally change my life”

Sturrock is currently working three jobs to help pay her way through college, but it is not enough and in need of scholarship funds to help make her dream a reality.

“I am a cook at FreshPrep, a content writer at Americommerce, and a craftsman at Savage Custom Acrylics. I have juggled these three jobs for almost six months now and they have each been a wonderful experience,” Sturrock wrote.

She is pursuing a bachelor’s degree at Lamar University in social work with two minors in Spanish and psychology.
