Bio

Dentistry is a vocation through which I will provide preventative and curative care to all. I see dentistry as my calling and my destiny to fulfill, to grant others the chance to charm the world with a smile they are confident in. I would rather be obsessed to help people be confident to do the thing I love to see the most: smile.

    Bold Moments No-Essay Scholarship
    The first photo is of me earning the Congressional Award from Congressman Carter. I earned the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest civilian award in the United States, and the STEM Star award. I was even featured in an article about Indian Americans winning this prestigious award! The next few photos are of me ziplining in Costa Rica in 2015 when I was 11 years old. I ziplined through the rainforest with a view of one of the most active volcanoes in the world, Arenal Volcano. I wrote a message in the book at the ziplining place about my thrilling experience.
