Here are a few excerpts from his winning essay:
When I was eleven, a diagnosis of Crohn’s disease turned my world upside down. What could have been a devastating blow to my dreams became a catalyst for my passion in biological engineering and a future dedicated to health care and social services.
My goal is to design sustainable agricultural practices and bioengineered solutions that can improve health challenges and alleviate hunger and malnutrition, particularly in underserved communities.
The dedication of Priority Partners to accessible, quality health care has not only improved our lives, it has also inspired me to pursue a career where I can contribute to similar positive outcomes for others.
I am dedicated to addressing social determinants of health and improving public health through innovative solutions and community initiatives. By drawing inspiration from the positive impact of organizations like Priority Partners, I am confident in creating a healthier, more equitable future for all.
