“For those who have felt unwelcome in the STEM community, know that many individuals have walked in your shoes and are willing to discuss their experiences with you. Having had role models who instilled self-confidence in me from a young age, I've learned that overcoming the mountains of doubt, even those that seem to obstruct all hope, is possible, and there are supportive individuals eager to share their insights and skills with you.”
