WHAT DO YOU DO?

I’m a graduate assistance, who help professors teach Physics labs, grade and tutor undergraduates physics

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS FIELD?

I call it faith, physics is not something I would have love to do. I found myself there due to certain circumstances and I’ve not had any regret. I continues this pathway because physics addresses every facet of life. Every action we do is usually guided buy one physics law or the other and it’s inspiring. I got into a research which spiked my interest in a sub field in physics which is the medical physics, and since then I’ve not looked back.

WHAT DO YOU LOOK AT & THINK, "I WISH YOUNGER ME WOULD HAVE KNOWN THIS WAS POSSIBLE?"

I graduated as the best in my undergrad. My master program also, still the best in the department. I honestly would not have believed I would have excelled in physics as much

WHY DO YOU LOVE WORKING IN STEM?

I love STEM because it reveals the impossibilities. Things that don’t seem possible becomes. I look forward to our next generation technology

BEST ADVICE FOR NEXT GENERATION?

Don’t be discouraged, keep trying and never give up. If you fall once you stand twice.
