What does being part of this organization or program mean to you?
I've just joined CBSN, so I haven't had a chance to fully experience it yet. However, I feel it could be a great way for me to network with people who share similar interests and are interested in the same fields as me.
What was a highlight of attending the 2026 Youth Summit and Expo?
My biggest highlight of the summit was honestly the networking! I absolutely loved it. I'm a person who is usually very reserved and shy, but for some reason, it was so easy for me to connect and get close with people. I developed connections with people that I never thought I could have.
What excites you about STEM?
I really like neuroscience, but also everything engineering. I would really like to build a career in the field. My goal right now is to try to see how neuroscience can be linked to engineering. I got to speak with Melanie Ratnam, and we explored that subject together. It was really fun.
