Science is the process by which we understand our existence and our reality, and this process will always be fundamental to the human experience. Accessibility to science and exposure to numerous fields of research is vital for a science-literate community, and hands-on engagement with science at an early age inspires one to develop critical curiosity as a life-long skill.

Led by these values, I co-founded STEM Starters in my first year of graduate school at Columbia University, in which we hosted free science workshops for the public with a variety of STEM field themes, from biology, to forensic science, to aviation, and much more.
