Collegiate Alum Guest Speaker in MS World Religions Series

1/25/2016

Ezoza Nomazova, Collegiate 2013, was interviewed by Weldon Bradshaw at the Middle School Assembly on January 13, 2016. They discussed her life in Tashkent, Uzbekistan and Moscow, and then her move to the United States where she enrolled at Collegiate as a sophomore with the help of then Admissions Director Amanda Surgner. During that time Ezoza excelled as a student, working diligently in her coursework as she translated her thoughts from Russian and Uzebek to English, dominated chess matches, and dazzled her classmates as a passionate pianist. Humble and gracious Ezoza returned to Collegiate to share her thoughts with Middle Schoolers about the role of prayer in Islam, part of the assembly series on world religions.

Grateful for her experiences at Collegiate and now as a bio-medical engineering major at VCU, Ezoza's greatest desire is to give back to her community in appreciation for all that has been given to her. Ezoza holds great pride in becoming a U.S. citizen on November 18, 2015!
