Mark Armijo “STEM Support” Scholarship
In 1982 Mark Armijo received his first computer as a gift from his parents. Throughout the rest of his life, science and technology played a major role. After becoming a husband and a father, and working many jobs at innovative companies like Intel, he returned to school and graduated with his Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science in 2004. Along with his passion for the STEM fields, Mark knew that education was key to a successful future. We award this scholarship in Mark’s honor to those seeking to further their education in the fields that meant so much to him.
