Dr. Lina Shehadeh, PhD

As a university professor, I’ve seen firsthand what makes college applications stand out. I founded Empower Leaders AI to help high school students develop the specific technical skills and projects that admissions committees notice. My unique background in both medicine and data 
science allows me to guide students in creating meaningful projects that showcase their 
exceptional potential

Why I Focus on High School Students

 During my years in academia, I noticed a pattern: students with coding and analytical skills were consistently more successful in gaining admission to competitive programs. I created this workshop specifically to help high school students develop these advantages early, setting them up for greater success in the college application process and beyond

Success Stories

Learning here feels personal and practical.

Every lesson is hands-on, and the coding sandbox made it super easy to practice what I was learning right away. I love how real-world the projects are — I actually use them in my job interviews!

Combined Creativity with Tech

I’ve always liked drawing, but this course showed me how I could use Python to make art and animations. It was exciting to bring my ideas to life with code! My teachers even asked me to present my project at school.
