Growing up, I have found myself constantly in a position of uncertainty. To help me find my way, I’ve allowed myself to step beyond my comfort zones and explore as many aspects of the world as possible through my own curiosity. Throughout my time, I’ve been able to make countless connections and be a part of so many amazing organizations as well.Now, as a student at Penn State University, I hope that I can learn to use the knowledge I gain through college and apply it the near future towards the betterment of others' lives. I also wish to spread happiness and inspiration through my learning experiences, be it STEM related or not.The world constantly presents major crises against humanity that people must learn to adapt and overcome. In doing so, we begin to live a better life and feel happier in the process. I not only wish to make people happier by conducting applied research, but I want to leave a lasting legacy of sharing newfound knowledge to others as well. I wish to spread this knowledge so everyone can be more informed or have a little bit more cheer in their lives. I want to see the world become a better place, and in making the world a better place, I make myself feel a little happier, too.
