Sami Alahmadi
Biography
Sami Alahmadi graduated Summa Cum Laude and with Highest Departmental Distinction from the University of Illinois at Chicago, majoring in Biological Sciences and minoring in Spanish. In navigating his upbringing between Saudi Arabia and America, his love of language helped him find unity and connection among seemingly distinct cultures. Likewise, he spent several years working with Chicago's diverse, vulnerable communities, including volunteering at a hospice unit, immigration centres, and mentoring at-risk youth. He has campaigned for and assisted in passing legislation to bridge social and health disparities for marginalized populations. Having seen the delicate interplay between often uncontrollable social factors and health outcomes, Sami hopes to study global health and public policy to tackle health inequities and social injustice at a systemic level.

个人简介
Sami Alahmadi以优异的成绩毕业于伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校，主修生物科学，副修西班牙语。在沙特阿拉伯和美国之间的成长过程中，他对语言的热爱帮助他在看似不同的文化中找到统一和联系。同样，他花了几年时间与芝加哥的多元化、弱势社区合作，包括在临终关怀单位、移民中心做志愿者，以及指导高危青少年。他曾参与竞选并协助通过立法，以缩小边缘化人群的社会和健康差距。在看到通常无法控制的社会因素和健康结果之间的微妙相互作用后，萨米希望研究全球健康和公共政策，以便在系统层面上解决健康不平等和社会不公正问题。
