This spring, I was able to take part in the Junior Science and Humanities Symposium, representing the New England Southern region as a National Finalist. The experience of showcasing my work on leukemia detection alongside students nationwide has been motivational. I pushed myself to articulate scientific concepts effectively and learned so much about effectively explaining my research to a wide array of audience. I am extremely grateful for the opportunity, as the conversations I had with judges, mentors, and peers continue to inspire me to deepen my work and strive for innovation with purpose.
