Dear AAWD, I am deeply humbled and grateful to have received this award. It is an honor to be recognized for my involvement with BU AWD, and I want to take this opportunity to reflect on my journey with the organization. 

I’ve been a member of BU AWD since my first year of dental school, and throughout my time with the group, I’ve consistently been inspired by how we all work together to engage our members and enrich the organization’s presence on campus. The collaborative spirit within BU AWD is something I truly cherish, and I am thankful for the opportunity to contribute to our collective success. 

I am incredibly grateful to have had the chance to serve alongside such an amazing Executive Board and to work with dedicated members who are always eager to make the most of our time as part of this wonderful community. Together, we’ve made meaningful strides, and it’s been a privilege to contribute to the growth and success of the chapter. 

I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to our incredible faculty advisors, Dr. Maseli and Dr. Rawal. Their continuous guidance, mentorship, and support have been invaluable in helping us navigate challenges and ensure our chapter’s growth. I also want to express my gratitude to the Student Affairs team for their assistance throughout the school year; their unwavering support has played a key role in our success. 

Thank you once again for this recognition, and for allowing me the chance to be part of such an inspiring organization. 

Sincerely, Aisha Daigle
