SPEAKER BIOGRAPHIES
KAYURI SHAH
My name is Kayuri Shah and I'm going to be a senior in high school. I was born in Tennessee, but I come from Northern Virginia and love to dance. I probably can eat enough ice cream to make most people sick and I still dislike bananas. I'm an official Yerd (Yearbook-Nerd), is daring, and love to ski. Currently, I'm working on my Gold Award as a Girl Scout, and wish I could sleep so much more.

KUSHAL DOSHI
While I was born in Long Island, I grew up in Marlboro, NJ (no it is NOT armpit of the U.S.!), graduated as a chemical engineer from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, and now work as a resin process engineer at PPG Industries in Milwaukee, WI (yeah, I just keep moving west during each phase of my life). In my free time, I enjoy running in awesome weather, cooking up a storm, hanging out with my crazy family/friends, and love thrilling activities. Next thing on my list is skydiving! I am also a bit of an outdoorsy person... I love to hike, trek, explore the wilderness, and just be adventurous! If you ever need to get in touch with me about anything, please feel free to contact me at kushal.doshi@yja.org
