" I am really excited to be a part of the Millennium Fellowship Class of 2020 because it is a great opportunity to build a platform and a community amongst people interested in the same goals and to learn from other students and applicants around the world. It is a great space to learn about the diversity and the different goals of other students. I am really excited to share and interact with the other fellows and help each other build a better community. "
