First, what is Hear From Heroes?
I remember when my parents asked me what I wanted to do in college and my career. I had some ideas, but I had no idea what a doctor, or a scientist, or a business person actually did.
When it was time to apply for school and jobs, my friends leaned on their family connections to get advice. I didn’t have a network of people who could help me think about it, in fact I didn’t really know what a ‘network’ was.
I felt left out and confused.
Hear From Heroes is a community for STEM students to learn from Heroes in the real world. We’ll talk about college, grad school, careers, finances, family, and more. This community will help you make better decisions, and set you up for whatever is next.
Thank you for being here!

So Rauf, where have you been?
Exciting news, I’m launching a healthcare and AI company! Over the last few months I’ve been talking with companies who will be our early partners, and putting together a talented team with different areas of expertise, both in medicine and outside of it. You can follow along my journey on the newsletter.
How else will this community be helpful to me?
Hopefully in lots of ways. I’ll post internship and job roles here for you to apply to, from companies that I’m close with. You can follow my journey building a health-tech company, and peek behind the curtain if you are curious about it.
We’ll keep getting great guests, and share a forum where you can connect with each other. Lots of things to look forward to!
