Hello Amber! Would you please introduce yourself?

I received the Caleb Pungowiyi Scholarship this past year and it was a high honor to receive. I graduated with my Bachelor of Science degree in Biology this past May where my whole family watched me walk across that stage in Havre, Montana. I feel very blessed for all the support my family and community has given me throughout my college career.

Currently, I am taking an MCAT prep course at the University of North Dakota this summer and will be applying to medical school for fall 2014 admission. I am very busy, but am looking forward to gathering berries off our beautiful tundra, and fishing in the Niukluk River once I return home. Although I am always traveling and moving for higher education, Nome is always going to be my home and the one place I find solace in the land.

Good luck Amber! We are excited to call you a (graduated!])Caleb Scholar.
