As a child, I dreamed of becoming a doctor, but falling short of the marks for MBBS and nursing felt devastating. During this time, my love for reading offered clarity, and the Loden Foundation became my lifeline, stepping in when financial struggles after my parents' divorce seemed insurmountable. Encouraged by my brother, I applied for their scholarship, which has given me the chance to rewrite my story. While I’m still charting my path, I aspire to one day repay the support and solace I’ve received during my most challenging moments.
