About Kriti

Hi, my name is Kriti Guthikonda and I’m an incoming junior at Westview High School in Beaverton, Oregon. I’m passionate about science and healthcare, and I hope to become a cardiologist. I’m involved in extracurriculars related to STEM, public health, and communication. I’ve led classroom lessons on HPV awareness, founded a public health club at my school, and regularly volunteer with pediatric patients at OHSU. In my free time, I enjoy reading, dancing, and playing badminton.

OHSU Volunteer

I volunteer at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), where I work directly with pediatric patients before their appointments. I help create a warm and supportive environment by interacting with the children, keeping them engaged, and offering comfort during what can often be a stressful time. This experience has deepened my passion for healthcare and strengthened my ability to connect with patients and families in a clinical setting.

Youth HPV Champs

As a Youth HPV Champion Ambassador, I work to raise awareness about HPV and the importance of vaccination through peer education and community engagement. I’ve led classroom presentations at the International School of Beaverton (ISB) and Westview High School, where I taught students about HPV-related health risks and preventive care in a clear, accessible way.

Science Olympiad

I won 3 medals in Science Olympiad at the state level: Second place in Can't Judge a Powder, third place in Disease Detectives, and third place in Anatomy and Physiology.

Bollywood Blitz

I enjoy dancing in my free time and am part of a dance group called Bollywood Blitz. Together, we competed at the Rangeela dance competition and won first place and have also performed at other events and fundraisers.

I won first place for the Wells Fargo Community Innovation Award at Arizona State University Global Institute of Sustainability and Innovation in which we won $2,500. It is the first school in the USA that is solely dedicated to sustainability and our project focused on creating a Sustainable and Economically Efficient Alternative to Synthetic Dyes.

I won second place at Northwestern Science Expo in the category of Consumer Products Testing Sponsored by Tortuga Early Instruments. This award led us to become a Broadcom Juniors Nominee in which our team reached the top 300 projects
