Colleen Uzoekwe has always been ahead of the pace when it comes to her life. In middle school, she started attending community college classes where she was enrolled at the same time as her sister and mother. By the time she was in high school, she had already completed her junior college degree. Uzoekwe not only excelled in the classroom, but on the track as well. She was the Gatorade State girl’s track and field player of the year in 2020 before making her way to Eugene. Continuing to push herself, Uzoekwe was a finalist for the Rhodes Scholarship, the worlds preeminent and oldest graduate fellowship, based at the University of Oxford. Never the one to limit herself, Uzoekwe is awaiting her next adventure while waiting to get in to med school. A balancing act she sure is accustomed to.
