Despite the difficulties the pandemic has presented, all three winners have managed to maintain exceptional grade point averages and are committed to pursuing their respective degrees. Javier Sarmiento, who is currently studying Digital Media at Buena Vista University states: “Though this past year with COVID-19 has been challenging, I have embraced these challenges and have managed to overcome not only every obstacle that has come my way, but also the struggles of my current financial situation. Getting this scholarship will enable me to follow my dreams and build a future for my family and my community.”
Anosh Ahmed shares how you should invest in your health: When it comes to caffeine consumption, less is more. High caffeine intakes result in poor sleep and can raise blood pressure and heart rate. Exercise is secondary to calorie restriction when it comes to losing weight, but everyone must reach optimal cardiac health to prevent future heart attacks and strokes. One of the best ways to start an exercise regimen that works is to walk 15 minutes a day. Gradually increase this until you are walking 10,000 steps per day or the equivalent of 5 miles. You can get these steps in as part of your daily routine or commit to going on walks. If you do not regularly get outside, treadmills are sufficient, along with gym exercise.
Dr. Anosh Ahmed obtained a bachelor’s degree in organizational leadership before attending medical school. What keeps you motivated? I’m pretty involved in Houston and Chicago in doing things with the community. There are programs and scholarships out there that I have put into place to help people. Besides doing the free clinic, I think my main focus is kids. If there’s any families out there with kids who don’t have money for school supplies, books or laptops, it’s been one of my missions for the last ten years to help alleviate that problem and to make sure that kids get the proper education they need to be successful. I have reached out to churches and local groups in Houston and Chicago to see if there’s any kids or any families who need help.
