To say that Holly Ravozzolo has a passion for life would be an understatement — her vigor and sparkling personality are rivaled by few. Holly, whose positivity and equally acute intellect, creativity and ability to reflect are unrivaled, was chosen as the 2013 Sparkle Scholarship recipient. Holly’s energy flows into her leadership of the Improv Club, her advocacy of diversity and acceptance through Students Learning Acceptance Through Education and her participation on her school’s Aluminum Narwhal robotics team. Her passion for change was clearly demonstrated through organizing and hosting globally streamed TED events, designed to spread the message of empowerment, inspiration and accountability. Holly will continue to be the change she wishes to see in the world by pursuing international studies, marketing and photography at Washington University in St. Louis.
