I come from a middle-class family living in the capital city of Bangladesh.Back when I was in school, my friends always told me I was ambitious.I could understand why because I was always talking about changing my institution, my country, my planet; and taking initiatives to make people's lives better.As I hoped for going to a top-notch university which will equip me with better skills and knowledge, UBC made it possible by offering generous ILOT award.Without it I wouldn't be able to come here!
