Vrajesh Patel - Dr. Phillips High School

Vrajesh Patel

With a heart for service and a readiness to volunteer, Vrajesh exemplifies the qualities that Dr. King espoused. Whether it’s working late into the evening to help facilitate a special program or arriving before sunrise to ensure that guests of Dr. Phillips High School are made to feel included and welcomed, he is the embodiment of a true servant.  Vrajesh also puts “skin in the game” to promote the dreams and well-being of others. In class, he is a leader and well-respected by his peers. He is quick with a word of encouragement and is always willing to help others academically. He is truly keeping the dream of Reverend Dr. King alive in this generation.

Favorite MLK Quote:  "Whatever your life's work is, do it well."

Future Goals: Vrajesh hopes to attend the University of Florida, University of South Florida, Georgetown University, or Johns Hopkins to study in the medical field for surgery and minor in Anthropology.
