Name: Sabina Karkin; email: gtg741a@mail.gatech.edu
I am greatly interested in making the environment in which we live better and more connected. Verizon provides high-growth communication services and wireline and wireless communications, and my goal is to be a part of creating better-quality lives for our communities by innovating ubiquitous technology that becomes part of our everyday tasks, making it feel more natural.
I would use the money towards my education as well as research to attend conferences.

I just received word this morning that we have three $1000 fellowships to award to underrepresented computing students. That’s the good news. The bad news is that they want the recipient’s names in the next two days!!! Yikes! So if you wish to be considered, please take a few minutes to respond to the following questions, and then return to me with a resume. Deadline is midnight tonight. Sorry for the short notice.

Are you currently receiving financial aid through the office of Student financial services?
