VOICES THAT INSPIRE

Nataly Andrade

Senior year of high school comes with many new opportunities and challenges. Going through it alone can become very exhausting. However, with the help of Ms. Lawrence, I was able to take my senior year with a calm demeanor. The most difficult part for me was completing any sort of financial aid application. However, she was able to guide me through the process, answer any question that I had, and help me fill out my forms on time. I thank her for making a time that many people do not look forward to, flow easily.

Katia Gaona

The Pivot Foundation has helped me in so many ways and I’m beyond grateful for the guidance that was given to me by Ms. Lawrence. I was guided for many years by Ms. Lawrence, she started helping me when I was a senior in high school trying to apply to all my dream colleges, either by applying for financial aid, reviewing my college essays, to even preparing me for my TSI exams. Throughout the years I kept going back to her for anything that I have ever needed help on during my education/career path. I am now a UHCL Alumni and I couldn’t have done it without her guidance and support throughout all these years. Thank you!
