"My brother wrote an essay
about how I inspired him with my dedication and persistence
in becoming a physician. He noted my rather roundabout way
of getting into school, via four years of work experience
in addition to obtaining a masters in public health, before
applying to medical school. He submitted the essay to the
Coca-Cola website and I was chosen as a (Olympic torch) runner
. . . One of the things that amazes me about (running) those
four blocks – I was the only person in the world in
possession of the flame – a symbol of unity and peace.
As for my GW experience so far, I have had a wonderful time
at GW. The students, I believe, really make the school and
the diversity of the class – age, race, gender –
is a wonderful atmosphere in which to learn and grow."
