Family

Tell us why they deserve to be nominated!

He’s worked so hard to get his doctorate in physical therapy. For 2 of the years, he worked a part-time job on the days he didn’t have class, so he didn’t have a day off for multiple months. Some days he was up until 4 a.m. studying and then had to be in class at 8 a.m. I just want to recognize his determination and consistency.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about your graduating student nominee?

He’s always going to make sure his family is taken care of, and he’s going to make sure he helps as many people as he can.

Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Ola!
