David Velasquez will be the first person to graduate from Harvard Business School, Kennedy School, and Medical School. His family immigrated from Nicaragua, and spoke no English.
When David Velasquez’s parents emigrated from Nicaragua to the United States, they were dropped off at a gas station in California. They spoke no English, had no family or friends, and could not afford clothes or diapers for their young children. Finding work was a challenge as his mother and father have a a fifth- and third-grade education, respectively. David's father stood on the street corner to pick up jobs as a day laborer to earn income for his family.
I got involved with an organization that tried to improve access to medical care. This was personal to me as my family and I experienced homelessness. I realized a degree in public policy would help me design and deliver better health care systems. I also did work in the C-suites of hospitals and nonprofits across Boston. I noticed that the people making decisions were familiar with business. I wanted to be comfortable having these discussions as well.
