What is your earliest memory of being intrigued by STEM? "I became fascinated with STEM when my dad took the time to explain how a Coronary Artery Bypass surgery worked. As a child, I was amazed and shocked to discover that science could enable us to manipulate the human body in such intricate ways. This eye-opening experience ignited my curiosity and sparked a deep interest in the field of STEM."

When did your love of STEM begin? "I hadn't really considered STEM as my career of choice until I was around 17 years old. It wasn't that I disliked science, I just wouldn't have called it my passion. However, I have always loved nature; the trees, the animals, the grass. Seeing "An Inconvenient Truth" in the 8th grade was when I first really become aware of and upset about the impacts that humans have had on the Earth. So, when I realized that ballet was not going to be the right path for me, I started to take classes that would allow me to apply for a science degree, so that I could do my part against Climate Change." #STEM #Botany #WomeninSTEM #Rolemodel #diversifystem #science #technology #mathematics #engineering #stemeducation #stemsquad #stemwomen #seeitbeitstemit
