As Best High School Song Winner, in addition to the mentor trip, Arabella wins a $1000 scholarship! She will be writing her trip sponsors to let them know what she is learning throughout the trip.

Arabella Floding is a 19-year-old from Arizona and a first-time applicant of this scholarship. She is currently pursuing a degree as a first year in Industrial Engineering with a combined major in Business Administration at Northeastern University in Boston.

Growing up, Arabella was raised by her single mother in a low-income household. At times, she faced housing insecurity and stayed with friends in order to continue attending school. These challenges taught her resilience, adaptability, and the importance of community support. Rather than allowing obstacles to hold her back, Arabella used them as motivation to excel in academics, leadership, and the arts.

In high school, she was a four-year member of marching band and sang in choir for two years. She also founded and served as vice president of her school’s Speech and Debate Club and was actively involved in FBLA and Service Club. These experiences not only gave her a platform to lead but also helped her strengthen her voice, connect with others, and give back to her community.

Now at Northeastern University, Arabella is pursuing her passion for Industrial Engineering and Business Administration, fields that combine her love of problem-solving with her drive to create efficient systems that benefit people. She is excited to use her education to build a career at the intersection of engineering and business, with the goal of creating solutions that make organizations and communities stronger.

Outside of academics, Arabella enjoys playing music, spending time with her dogs, and being with friends. She is deeply grateful for this scholarship, which not only supports her education but also recognizes the hard work and perseverance that brought her to where she is today.
