The Marianna Brady, PhD. Scholarship 2024 Winners

Macy Matsushima

Macy Matsushima

Pacific Lutheran University

Macy has been volunteering as a junior leader and volleyball coach at her local summer camp since she was in middle school. Her time spent learning from the staff and engaging with the kids helped her discover a love for serving as a role model and positive influence in the lives of students. After earning her bachelor’s degree in early education, Macy plans to give back to the community as an elementary school teacher.

“This scholarship means a lot to me since it's providing me with more financial relief going into college. My family and I greatly appreciate this opportunity and will put it to great use as I embark on this new chapter of my life.”

Macy is the daughter of Arnold Matsushima.
