Sanjay is a pre-med student at Rice University in Houston, Texas, Class of 2027, where he studies cell biology and genetics, chemistry, and global health. Through his work as an EMT, his research in Malawi, and his role at Camp Kesem—where he supports children whose parents have cancer—he has learned how illness and injury can shape a family’s daily life, emotions, and sense of stability. Hearing these stories and witnessing the strength of the families he works with has taught him how deeply health challenges can affect young people, both physically and emotionally.
