Grit Story

I grew up on a mountain without electricity or mobile signal. I had to come down and live in a dormitory for educational opportunities. Every Saturday and Sunday I returned home to help my family — carrying pumpkins and cabbage, and weaving cloth to help my mother earn income. Although our situation was not good, it made me patient, strong, and determined to develop myself.

Academic Path

I grew up on a mountain without electricity or mobile phone signal. Healthcare access was quite difficult — when community members fell ill they often could not get to the hospital because it was far from the village. This is why I want to study Community Public Health — to bring knowledge back to help care for people, promote health, and improve the quality of life of mountain people so they can access healthcare more easily.

Work History

From childhood I helped my parents work in the fields and garden alongside my studies — carrying cabbage and pumpkins, helping with various agricultural tasks. I also helped my mother weave cloth to earn supplementary income while studying. These experiences have made me hardworking, patient, and responsible.

Community Impact

I participate in the community by helping with Village Health Volunteer (VHV) work — disseminating health information and facilitating services for villagers. I also help with village communal activities. Having seen the problem of healthcare access for mountain people, I am committed to bringing knowledge back to help develop the quality of life in my community.

Future Aspirations

I am studying to complete a bachelor's degree in Community Public Health because I want to be a professional who promotes health and develops quality of life in the community, especially in remote areas. In the future I want to use my knowledge to help provide care, prevent disease, and create maximum benefit for society.
