“Howdy, In October of 2022 I applied for a research Fulbright at the University of Cape Town in Cape Town, South Africa. I proposed an independent project to study Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder under the mentorship of the brilliant Dr. Kirsten Donald. Last week, I received notification that my application made it through the United States Fulbright Committee and has advanced on to South African Embassy for consideration! I am so excited for this opportunity and wanted to thank you all for your support throughout my undergraduate career. None of this would have been possible without the Brown Foundation and I will always be grateful your generosity.”
