Congratulations To Our 2019 Scholarship Winner!

The Law Office of Michael A. Ziegler Debt Fighters is pleased to announce the winner of the Financial Planning Scholarship to Elizabeth DeFazio!

Ms. DeFazio recently transferred from Raritan Valley Community College to Rutgers University. Attending community college was one of the many financial decisions she made to save money and find her passion as a student. She is currently studying Chemical Engineering because she’s interested in the vast applications and career options available with this degree. After obtaining her bachelor’s, Elizabeth’s aim is to enter into a Chemical Engineering Master’s program.

Outside of the classroom, Elizabeth is extremely involved in the Society of Women Engineers (SWE). She enjoys engaging in her local and school community to inspire women to pursue engineering. This scholarship enables more flexibility to devote time to organizations like SWE and her chemical engineering curriculum.

Please join us in wishing Elizabeth DeFazio congratulations on being awarded the Financial Planning Scholarship and continued success in her studies.
