>Ohio family,

>It is with great excitement that I share with you that one of our very 
>own, Trisha Kulkarni from Dayton, Ohio has been selected as one of 
>thirty National Federation of the Blind scholarship finalists!!!
>
>Many of us know and love Trisha, but for those that do not know her, 
>she has been serving as the President of the National Association of 
>Blind Students for nearly three years now, along with many other 
>prestige’s positions such as on the NFB National Steering Committee, 
>Resolutions Committee, and more.
>
>Trisha recently completed her bachelor of science in computer science 
>at Stanford University, and is returning to Stanford in the fall to 
>obtain her masters. During this past year, she has been working 
>tirelessly at the Louisiana Center for the Blind in a 9 month intensive 
>blindness skills program, and will be graduating from LCB next week.

>in 2018 as an incoming first year at Stanford, and now she will be 
>awarded it again going into her first year as a masters student.
