Q&A With Oluwagbeyidide Olaomo

About (request update)

I'm a Nursing student at Dillard University with a genuine passion for people and community. I've volunteered in a hospital setting in Nigeria, helped package over 20,000 meals, and founded a nutrition initiative addressing real health needs in my community. Leadership comes naturally to me � I served as Student Executive Council President, leading 18 people and representing 250 students. I don't do things for the title though. I just care about the impact. Right now I'm also a Civic Leadership Fellow and a Student Researcher in Public Health, learning every day and building toward a career where I can actually make a difference.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

I want to be a nurse leader � not just clinically excellent, but the kind of person who opens doors for others. Growing up in Nigeria and now building my path in the U.S., I know firsthand what it means to dream big without always seeing yourself represented. That's exactly why I want to be visible. I want young Nigerians, especially girls, to look at my journey and believe theirs is possible too. My goal is to lead in healthcare, give back to my community, and prove that where you start doesn't determine where you finish.
