MEET YOUR STATE OFFICERS
Ankush Vasireddy, President
Marquette High School
Hey Missouri HOSA! My name is Ankush Vasireddy, I'm a senior at Marquette High School, and I have the honor and the privilege to serve as your President for the upcoming year! A fun fact about me is that I love watching Cardinals baseball, and you can typically find me watching/televising 120+ games a season. In the future, I hope to pursue a career in neurology, surgery, or a mix of the two. I can't wait for the year ahead and to see our wonderful delegation again, hopefully with some new faces! My personal mission for Missouri HOSA is to ensure that all of you, as the future of healthcare, develop the skills necessary to excel in all your endeavors, and I truly hope that we can begin to make steps toward achieving this goal in the year ahead!
If you have any questions whatsoever, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at ankushvasireddy@gmail.com
