About Mahesa Hi! My name is Mahesa Miah. I am born and raised in the Big Apple- NYC! I am currently a rising junior in High School. A FUN FACT, I've had three cats and they were all named Lulu! I hope to pursue a career in STEM. I am passionate about medicine, but I am also interested in coding. I hope to intertwine these two passions and pursue a career that allows me to do both! My socioeconomic class has been monumental in shaping me to become the person I am today. Both my parents are immigrants and they've always left me in awe of their accomplishments. They both came to this country with less than a mediocre English vocabulary, yet they have paved a road for me to succeed. Similarly, my ethnicity and gender, a Bengali-American female, plays a large role in who I want to be in the future. As a young girl, I’m already aware of the hurdles that present for women to make it to the top.
