Yolanda and Sam Shuster Scholarship
One thing I've always held pride in was my ancestry. Unlike most Indian immigrants in the US, my parents didn't come from a family of government officials nor were they of a high caste. My dad had to overcome numerous challenges and obstacles to escape poverty and succeed in his education, starting as the son of a poor farmer in a third-world country. I’ve always been fascinated by my dad's journey from humble beginnings to achieving success in education, and the stories of his struggles and determination have been a constant source of inspiration and motivation for me. Through his example, I've come to understand the transformative power of hard work and perseverance, and the impact it can have on our lives and the lives of those around us.
The COVID-19 pandemic hit at the end of my Freshman year of high school, and I struggled to adapt to online learning. My grades began to suffer, and the isolation and loneliness brought on by the pandemic greatly impacted my mental health. I withdrew from my friends and social activities, and I felt like I had lost my sense of purpose and direction. I felt ashamed and frustrated with myself for not being able to keep up with my schoolwork. My parents took notice of my plummeting grades and were understandably concerned. One day, my dad took off work to talk with me. Instead of lecturing or getting mad at me, he told me a story from his youth.
My dad grew up in a poor farming family with four siblings, two sisters and two brothers. All of them dropped out of school to help on the family farm, leaving my dad to shoulder the burden of getting an education. As a result, he faced numerous challenges and obstacles in his pursuit of education. He had to work hard to balance his schoolwork with his responsibilities on the farm, and he often went without food or adequate sleep. When he was in 10th grade, his mother gave him an ultimatum: either quit school and help on the farm or starve. For two days, my dad was not given any food, except for some curdling yogurt that he managed to sneak out of the kitchen. Despite these struggles, my dad was determined to continue his education, and after his parents saw his conviction, they allowed him to continue.
I remember my dad's story vividly to this day, and it has always been a source of motivation and inspiration for me. After hearing his story, I switched from online to in-person classes and worked hard to improve my grades. In contrast to the difficult times I experienced during the pandemic, junior year was a time of growth and renewal for me. I was able to focus on my studies and my relationships, and I felt more motivated and optimistic about my future.

As I reflect on the "Ode, to Millennials Gen Z " I am truly struck by the sense of responsibility that permeates our generation. We often hear about the legacy of the Greatest Generation those who emerged from the depths of the Great Depression and triumphed amidst the challenges of World War II. Their encounter with destiny was marked by a struggle for survival and a pursuit of a future. Now as Millennials and Gen Z stand at the threshold of inheriting a world teeming with its obstacles I can't help but contemplate how we too are ready to face our own destiny.
Our generation is inheriting a world that's bankrupt in ways—not just financially, but environmentally and ethically as well. We have inherited a planet gasping for breath under the weight of warming a society grappling with inequality and economies burdened by debt and inadequate employment opportunities. Yet despite these challenges there is an underlying spirit of resilience and optimism that defines us. We are prepared to take up the baton and run our part of this race with determination, than bitterness.
In my journey I have witnessed this resilience firsthand.
I created NutriBot, a project that combines AI with diet planning as a response, to the one size fits all approach dominating the health and nutrition sector for so long. This project was not about innovation; it served as a testament to our generations dedication to customizing solutions based on individual needs. Our mission is to use technology to make all aspects of life more personalized and effective.
In a vein my experiences in the gaming and pharmaceutical industries reflect the trend of our generation; we are determined to revolutionize and rejuvenate traditional sectors. We refuse to accept systems and practices that no longer meet societys needs; instead we strive to reimagine them. The gaming industry has the potential to be more than entertainment—it can also serve as a tool and promote health. Similarly we can transform the pharmaceutical industry by prioritizing medicine development ensuring treatments are both effective and safe for each patients circumstances.
The Ode, to Millennials Gen Z characterizes us as an kind generation— even excessively so at times. However I believe our kindness is not a weakness but rather a strength.
It is, by understanding and empathizing with others that we can address the needs of those who are often overlooked or marginalized in society and work towards creating an world.
Our generation has faced criticism for taking an approach compared to our predecessors. However like the Greatest Generation before us each era must find its path. Our methods may seem unconventional to some – embracing technology questioning the status quo and advocating for fairness –. They are driven by necessity and a clear vision. Our mission is not to overcome todays challenges but to redefine what it means to lead and succeed in this ever changing world.
As we prepare to be the "Greatest Generation 2.0 " we understand that our actions today will have a lasting impact, on history. We have inherited a world filled with challenges. One brimming with opportunities. With every idea every act of kindness and every step taken towards sustainability we are not simply addressing issues; we are actively shaping the future. This is our moment. Our responsibility. And our destiny. I am confident that together we will rise to meet these challenges head on and leave behind a legacy that's both enduring and enlightened.

The global pandemic brought with it unprecedented challenges, especially when it came to maintaining our physical health while remaining in quarantine. As someone who experienced overwhelming feelings of sadness and anxiety due to prolonged isolation, I found myself turning towards self-help books such as "Deep Work" and "Atomic Habits" for inspiration on how best to create new daily habits to keep myself motivated. By following a detailed workout schedule through carefully curated online resources such as YouTube videos, I was able to maintain both my mental health and stay physically fit during these troubled times.
With the assistance of various resources at my disposal, I gathered valuable insights and tips applicable to real-life situations. Perhaps most crucially were lessons centered around setting realistic targets while breaking down bigger assignments into smaller doable steps. The other useful resource provided practical tools for building a routine likely to inspire greater motivation levels necessary for meeting daily objectives such as productivity or workout programs. Consequently, this experience sparked thoughts about integrating already-existing apps such as Balance (meditation) with FitBod (fitness) apps creating customized workouts or calming practices.
In addition to providing regular app features, this particular application would offer mental health resources and support. Its users would have the ability to remotely connect with therapists while gaining valuable insights about the latest research on mental health presented in an easily understandable way. To make the app accessible to as many people as possible, it would be designed with a clean and intuitive interface, with step-by-step instructions and video tutorials to guide users through the setup process and how to use the different features of the app. Regular updates and bug fixes would also ensure that the app is functioning smoothly and meeting the needs of its users.
The app would be subscription-based and marketed through referrals and sponsorships of YouTubers who have a significant following. By providing users with a state-of-the-art tool for promoting physical and mental well-being, the app would help individuals struggling with depression and other mental health issues to create a daily routine and workout schedule that is tailored to their unique needs.
In conclusion, my personal experience with depression and the benefits of online resources inspired me to want to create an app that promotes physical and mental well-being using AI and the latest research in mental health. With the right resources and funding, I believe that this app could make a significant impact in the lives of not only individuals struggling with depression and other mental health issues, but all humans, providing them with a comprehensive tool to improve their overall health and well-being.
