Learn MoreWhy They Love Being a Student
Learning has added value to my life! To be able to understand the history and even foundations of the world I know today is inspiring.
Favorite Subject & Why
My favorite subject has definitely been science! I become deeply fascinated by the stars and planets at night and that made me want to learn more about them. When I first saw a picture of Orion Nebula, I couldn’t believe how beautiful it was. Natural sciences have shown me to see beyond this beauty though, and look at the complexity behind it. I studied Astronomy and Marine Sciences in my 11th and 12th grade and they were my favorite classes I’ve ever taken!
How $20,000 Would Support Their Goals
I love computer science and seeing how technology is growing at such a fast rate inspires me to pursue an education in it. I also dream to learn more about astronomy and marine biology, because I love to imagine inspiring others to discover the same things that have been so special to me!
