What does being part of this organization or program mean to you?
It means I can have support in my project, and allows me to workshop ideas with people with field experience and resources.
What part of attending the 2026 Youth Summit and Expo are you most excited about?
I am excited to enjoy the experience with my mother and scope out potential careers as I look into university next year
What excites you about STEM?
I do really like the sometimes black and white nature to it, but also the always innovating side of it. There is always something to discover that in turn can help people.
Fun fact about me:
If I could, I would immediately be transported to any high profile museum with Renaissance period pantings and spend days there. I am not especially caring about the name of an artist who painted something but the texture, the ability to recognize painting techniques. It would bring a greater understanding and love for painting.
