"I am motivated every day to gradually improve in every aspect of my life as a graduate researcher, teaching assistant, mentor, and in my roles and activities outside of academia. This has allowed me to build an open, curious, and optimistic mindset that has served me well in grad school and beyond. I look forward to each day and the opportunities that it brings to become a better person."

"My values, family, community, being a life-long learner, and commitment to social justice motivate my aspirations in life. Pursuing a Ph.D. is beyond accomplishing a milestone but rather being able to be part of a movement that moves towards access and equity for minoritized communities."
