Shirley Lemus Hufstedler hopes that her love of health and science may one day help her give something back to the Hispanic community.  Of Mexican descent, Shirley is the 2003 National Hispanic Heritage Youth Awards winner for Health and Science, sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline.  She will attend Harvard College in the fall, where she wants to major in biology or biochemistry while continuing to explore a love of the arts.  She graduated valedictorian from El Modena High School in Orange, CA, with a perfect GPA and many awards and scholarships to her name.  Some of these include the US Marine Corps Scholastic Excellence Award, her school?s top science award, the Greater Women?s Club Teen Citizen Award, the Best Buy Scholarship, and the Kiwanis Scholarship.  In addition to her academic achievements, she has displayed a commitment to community service since grade school, when she began to serve food and pass out donated provisions at her local Hispanic community center.  Shirley was also vice president of her school?s Key Club where she distributed food to local homeless shelters and participated in the AIDS Walk.  She hopes to become a physician one day where she can help patients who have difficulty expressing health problems to English-speaking or non-Hispanic doctors.   Shirley says her role models are ?all strong Latina women,? especially her mother, grandmother, and older sister.  ?My maternal family realized the importance of our Latino and indigenous culture and instilled this appreciation in me at an early age,? she says.
