"My love for coding and computing began ever since elementary school when
my team and I qualified for First Lego league robotics regionally. I
attended the Academy for Science and Design (ASD) to further my interest
in STEM. I was exposed to even more technology in ASD while taking courses
ranging from Computer Science to Engineering & Technology. I was chosen to
represent my 2018 Middle School graduating class in the Academy for
Science and Design as a role model in STEM. My passion and interest in
technology and STEM has led me to be nominated by Nashua High School South
as a STEM advocate for Women and Late Bloomers for a High School Tedx like
talk which was broadcasted by the Nashua ETV. I was also part of my High
School’s Innovations Club. My team and I developed a mobile app for
School Safety which would help with early detection of school shootings
and other threats. Our app qualified as one of the five state finalist
teams in NH for the Samsung Solve for Tomorrow Competition. With my
increased interest, I am now the Secretary of the Innovations Club at
Nashua High South as a sophomore. Using my web technology, software
skills, and passion for writing, I am currently the President and
Editor-in-Chief of Panther Prints which is the student-run newspaper of my
high school. This year, I was honored to be awarded the 2020 NCWIT
Aspirations in Computing Award. I have also been honored to be the
National Honor Society Webmaster of my high school where I am in charge of
the NHS website & social media pages!"
