Kendall Strathman: University of Central Missouri — THRIVE (AmaZing Z Scholarship Award)

Kendall is this year’s AmaZing Z Scholarship winner and is starting her freshman year at the University of Central Missouri in the THRIVE program, where she will focus on customer service and culinary skills. She’s excited to take this next step toward her goals of becoming more independent and self-reliant.

One of Kendall’s proudest accomplishments is getting admitted to college, and she is ready to dive into new experiences both in and out of the classroom. She has a creative spirit and a love for hospitality, which shines through when she’s making coffee drinks, cooking, or exploring new culinary ideas.

Outside of school and work, Kendall enjoys dancing, swimming, and singing. Her upbeat personality and willingness to try new things make her a joy to be around, and she’s looking forward to building friendships, learning new skills, and preparing for a future filled with possibilities.

We are so excited to cheer Kendall on as she rocks her time at UCM and works toward her dreams!
