Alexis Meyer, entering her third year at University of California Berkeley School of Optometry, won the Optometry Divas scholarship in the summer of 2022. The scholarship — open to women OD students — requires that applicants develop a detailed plan. Following in the footsteps of her mother, Alexis wants to start her career in corporate optometry – and learned much more about it through this process. That was precisely Dr. Lauretta Justin’s idea in creating this CEO of You scholarship. 2023 candidates can apply now at optometrydivas.com.
