2022
Markus is this year’s recipient of the Ruby’s Rainbow Sarah Jane Lewis Scholarship Award and a freshman in the Sooner Works program at the University of Oklahoma.
Markus says, “I am so grateful for this opportunity I am given. I can’t wait to show the world that we are more alike than different. Down syndrome is what I was born with but not who I am, and I can’t wait to see where this take me. It is only the beginning. I want to say thank you to everyone who helped me get here—my teachers and especially my mom, and my support system for believing in me! BOOMER SOONER!!”
We are so proud of you, Markus! We can’t wait to see you rock it at OU!
