Fail Forward
This workshop is for you if:
You are looking to pursue a degree or career in STEM.
You want to learn how to be successful in STEM even when it seems difficult.
You want to make a difference in your community.
Workshop details:
Don't quite know what to major in? Neither did I, but I knew what I liked. It is scary deciding on what to major in and especially when people have questioned whether you were capable of achieving it. In this workshop, I will share how I found my interest in STEM, how failure has led me to success, and how working in STEM has helped make a difference in my community and how you can do it too!
