Amir Rezaei
South Africa & University of the Witwatersrand, 2014 Since being diagnosed with unspecified epilepsy in 2020, I am motivated to continuously pursue knowledge and to work in a profession that involves education, data science, and healthcare. I lecture applied statistics and economics to undergraduate accounting and commerce students. I have received prestigious scholarships from the Mandela Rhodes Foundation and the Canon Collins Trust to complete my honours and master's degrees. I have over a decade track record of mentoring and coaching young African entrepreneurs, especially through my involvement with Enactus, a global organisation that empowers students to create social and economic value, and the Anzisha Prize (a partnership between the African Leadership Academy and the Mastercard Foundation). I have served in various leadership and advisory roles for Enactus University of Pretoria, and have represented South Africa at Enactus World Cups as a national champion participant and as a judge.
