Hi everyone! My name is Kerri Shields and I’m from Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania, a city right outside Philadelphia. I recently graduated from The Carroll School of Management at Boston College, with a double concentration in Marketing and Management and Leadership. While at BC, I was a two-year captain for the Women’s Basketball Team. I was able to compete at the highest level of college basketball in the United States. I will forever be grateful for the experiences I had and the people I met during my four years at Boston College. Those four years have brought me here today. I am now off to The University of Ulster to get my Masters in Business Development and Innovation. I will also be playing for the Ulster Rockets in the Irish Women’s Superleague. The Victory Scholarship will allow me to do the three things I wanted to do most; further my education, continue to play the sport I love, and give back to the Irish community in any way I can. I’m thrilled to be a part of the Victory Scholar Program, and so grateful for this opportunity!
