I am Demetria Alexis Crawford, born January 2nd 1999, right here in Phoenix, Arizona. I am currently a senior at Mountain Pointe High School and on track to graduate. During my four years in high school and even before high school I always knew I wanted to work in the dental field. I have finally decided that I will become an Orthodontist but I will start at Phoenix College first to get an associate’s degree in Dental Hygiene. The reason I’ve decided to become a dental hygienist first is because, I would like to have the experience with teeth before I further my career in the dental world and also so that I can save up enough to be able to be financially stable for the university level. So far, I have committed my time to a local program by

This scholarship would mean a lot to me, because I would be the first out of my family to graduate college and I was the first to graduate high school out of 3 generations. My father was a Marine for 10 years, he choose a different path instead of going to college or finishing high school. He joined the war overseas to serve his country and I am proud of him. He always told me to never join any branch because he saw a future for me that he wanted me to invest in an education and better myself in everything I do. My brothers and sister chooses horrible paths and yet I was different than the rest of the family. I wanted my mother and father proud of me and I wanted my country to be proud of me. Instead of doing drugs, drinking and partying. I was the odd kid growing up that invested myself into books and dreamed of the endless possibilities that I can become. I thought different jobs of what I can do to help my community and not fall into the evil path as my brothers and sister did. Dad always told me that I was his shining star, I didn’t really understand what was going on with family until I got out of high school. Drugs and alcohol can really screw up peoples ' lives. I am living proof that you can choose the right path to become a better citizen.

Coming from a low-income and primarily minority-based community, I have come to realize how quite often such health services, such as dental care, are not economically feasible for members of the community. My main reason for feeling this way is the mere fact that my parents are unable to receive quality dental care due to their immigrant status. As it currently is people of statuses similar to these, generally all similar in that they are low income, are only eligible to receive the most basic of health coverage. This translates into situations where entire families are only receiving the most basic of coverage. This is the main reason as to why I am motivated and dedicated to pursuing a profession in dentistry. I can be a leading and innovative force in making the necessary changes to rectify the current quality disparity between the services that is offered to higher income communities in comparison to lower income communities.

Many people have goals to accomplish. Some can be realistic and some can be out of the ordinary. My academic and career goals are to graduate college, go to Medical School, and become an OB/GYN (Obstetrics/ Gynecologist).

It is a long journey, and this scholarship can help me to keep attending college.
