Fortifying a Healthy Future<br />
Albert and Helen Mazurkiewicz Endowed Scholarship recipient David Brzyski is a<br />
self-admitted “people person.” This trait has been evident since the day he was<br />
accepted into the New Jersey Center for Science, Technology and Mathematics<br />
Education (NJCSTME) BS/MS Biotechnology program. Throughout his tenure at<br />
Kean, the senior has been proactively involved with programs that connect him with<br />
fellow students and faculty, as well as those which introduce him to new ones.<br />
A student ambassador, intern and participant in the Student for a Day program, it is<br />
no surprise that the dedication he puts forth toward being successful in his major<br />
is a by-product of his affinity to helping those around him. “The idea of discovering<br />
a new drug or even a cure for a disease is what keeps me motivated,” says David.<br />
“If I could help just one person manage his disease or find a cure, in my eyes, that<br />
would be a tremendous success.”<br />
