Our scholar Juliana spent her childhood feeding her curiosity: reading at the kitchen table after school with her kindergarten teacher mother or doing math with her father. While her peers dropped out and lost sight of their own educations, Juliana looked ahead — building a dream that didn’t yet exist and pursuing it through challenges and setbacks to arrive at Dartmouth.

When there were no refrigerators for local families to preserve food, he applied his high school science learnings to provide self-crafted refrigerators for his family and neighbors. Now, a student at the University of Wisconsin, Layne combines his early passions with new skills in computer science, econ and beyond in the hopes of creating platforms to support farming families, agriculture and food availability for communities throughout Ethiopia.
