I am very confident, yet humble with every move I make. I feel as though you cannot expect other people to believe in you if you do not believe in yourself first. From academics, to interning, to volunteer work, I strive to push myself past my limits while maintaining efficiency and structure. While maintaining these attributes and setting specific standards for myself, I still constantly remind myself that it is 100% OK to not be perfect at everything I do. It is also OK to be different. In a world full of followers, I choose to be a leader, because leaders mold minds and change lives. I would like to make a change in this world just like a lot of people I know do, but specifically, I'd like to spread knowledge while spreading love--the two key things I feel that the world has most lost over time.
