- Your killer idea to change the world?
- Provide sustainable empowerment initiatives to impoverished communities following a process that involves:
identifying the problems of impoverished communities by conducting comprehensive community assessments;
collecting numerical, statistical, and visual data from the communities;
connecting the impoverished communities with the American university system by presenting the data to students and faculty, allowing them to create solutions to poverty issues in the classroom;
implementing university-designed solutions in the impoverished communities, while involving local organizations and community leaders as partners throughout the implementation process;
and
sustaining progress by utilizing universities for consistent foreign program analysis and evaluation, eventually leading to self-sustainability and self-sufficiency.
- If today was your last day on earth, how would you live it?
- I would call all of my friends and family to tell them how much I love them, then get together with my best friends and party like there's no tomorrow.
