I attended middle school at the Colfax Spanish Academy in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood in Pittsburgh. Then I attended high school at the Pittsburgh Science and Technology Academy in Oakland, Pittsburgh. I completed my college degree at the University of Pittsburgh at the Oakland and Greensburg campuses. My background as an African American immigrant, woman, and minority might be considered a weakness and disadvantage in pursuing a science degree. However, I am one of many stories to show that it doesn't matter what your background is and where you come from anything is possible if you dream big and work hard. I hope this book encourages others like myself who find themselves in the background, gender, culture, or race similar or different from mine to find encouragement in pursuing higher education and pursuing their dreams.view less
