“STEM careers
are awesome
– you will be
fascinated in
unimaginable ways
about what is possible and
what you can do to help
the world become a
better place.”
“Get out there and do it!
The world needs your
experiences and ideas to
solve the big challenges
of today and the future.
Once you start telling people what it is
you are passionate about, you will find
the people that are your cheerleaders
and the people that are interested in
the same things as you. Hold onto those
people, and ignore the nay-sayers.”

“If you feel like you want
to know how the world
works, how life evolved,
why there are so many
planets in the sky, or how
climate change will affect your future,
then no barrier or prejudice should hold
you back. You might have to overcome
more difficulties than other people in
the same career as you, but remember
that those barriers are the fault of the
people that put them up, not you.”

“You don’t need to
know your whole
journey, or where
you’re going to end
up, before you get
started. Be curious, and learn
about the things that excite
you. If you’re passionate about
something, you can find a way to
harness it to save the world.”
