Congratulations to our 2022-2023 Memorial Scholarship winners! Braeley Pettigrew is a young woman from Bryant & Stratton College who shows dedication and enthusiasm. Braeley's instructors also praise her on her attentiveness to details and eagerness to learn. Not only is she a great student and role model to other medical assistant students, she is a mother of two, volunteers as a parent ambassador at her son's school, and is a strong advocate for the RADD (recreational advocates for developmental disability) program. Braeley has such a beaming personality and shows so much dedication to the medical assistant profession already. We cannot wait to see her name as an active member on the WSMA and volunteer on our committees. Braeley was able to accept her award in person at our 2024 WSMA Annual Conference Awards Luncheon.
Mary Bixby is a dedicated student at Madison College who displays exemplary writing and verbal communication skills. Mary's instructors have no doubt she will be a successful medical assistant and serve her community well. Her goal in the medical assistant profession is providing care by assisting in the rehabilitation of introducing imprisoned people back into society. This requires such patience and strength. Her passion is helping patients succeed and providing the best tools and resources and it shows strongly in her volunteer efforts. The WSMA is proud to present her with this scholarship and cannot wait to see what trails she will blaze in the future.
Again, congratulations to these strong individuals. We had 3 other exemplary candidates that applied. It was a very close vote and wish we had the opportunity to present all applicants as winners. We can see what the future medical assistants look like and they all shine. Keep it up!
The WSMA is so proud of each and every one of you. Best of luck on your success! If you or know a current medical assistant student who would be a great recipient of the Memorial Scholarship, please complete an application. Each applicant is presented with a check in the amount of $1,500. Applications are due February 15, 2025.
