The Krupa Upadhyay Scholarship

Krupa Upadhyay, a CV graduate, was a loving and beloved daughter, sister, and friend. She was an intelligent, ambitious, and kind person who earned her Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in International Studies with concentrations in Marketing and Psychology, as well as minors in Spanish, Media and Communications Studies, and Popular Culture Studies from The Ohio State University in 2018.
Krupa was eager to apply her passion and skills in Spanish to make a difference for the causes she most believed in and was already bringing attention and conversation to the need for greater representation and inclusivity in the media and entertainment industries.
