A little about me:
Hello! My name is Alexis Staes. I am in my final semester as an Economics and Engineering major at the illustrious Spelman College. I am an only child raised by a single mom who has continuously done all she can to provide for us. My getting a degree from the #1 HBCU in the country has been a dream for both of us. Being a student at Spelman College has not only taught me what it means to be independent and successful, but it has also taught me when to ask for help.
I have enjoyed being a part of Fine Arts and Engineering Clubs throughout college, as well as being the President of a local hip-hop dance company. I have benefited from a range of academic courses from Python to Francophone Cinema to African Diaspora and the World. This well-rounded experience has helped me become the resilient, authentic, passionate person I am today. At Spelman, we have the saying “a choice to change the world.” I choose to change the world as an Engineer. I am so close to reaching my goal of graduating college and pursuing my professional goals. After graduation, I will begin my career working with Amazon Web Services.
Why do I need your help? Due to unforeseen circumstances, I have lost most of my financial aid from Spelman. Despite working part-time, I will not be able to complete my last semester of undergrad without financial assistance. Please help me graduate and pursue my dreams of changing the world.
