My name is Lidiya Ahmed, and I&#8217;m from Ethiopia. I am currently a sophomore double majoring in Space physics and Mathematics. Augsburg has given me<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the opportunity to learn more about vocation through multiple experiences. I couldn&#8217;t think of a place better than Augsburg to do my undergraduate degrees as I aspire to interact with people, work on community-based projects and learn about what\u2019s outside of my research lab in order to impact people&#8217;s\u2019 lives. I believe that scientists should serve their communities through science and service and I am glad that I get to do what I believe in as an Auggie. I will be pursuing my Ph.D. in space physics after graduation from Augsburg, and I see myself as a research scientist actively involved in community work while conducting research at national laboratories. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m excited to be a mentor for AYTI this year and to share with high school youth what I have learned about being a light in the world. I am hopeful that it will be a time for all of us at AYTI to be equipped in every dimension so that we can continue being change agents and light in the world!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Learn more about AYTI and this summer&#8217;s theme at<a href=\"http:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/ayti\/\">\u00a0http:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/ayti\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi!
