Inspiration:
My mom is a huge inspiration to me. She works in a male dominated work space, but doesn’t let that affect her as she makes sure to get the same respect from everyone. That is a huge inspiration to me because most STEM work fields currently are dominated by men, so no matter what STEM career I go into, I will likely be in a similar experience. My mom is also a big inspiration for me because one of her core values is kindness. I think that one of the main things that is missing from the world currently is empathy and kindness. And ever since I was little, she has always taught me that you should always try to make someone’s day, even if it is just smiling at a stranger in the store. Lastly, my mom inspires me because of her love for learning.
