"I ended up serving as an Americorps member with City Year Los Angeles after graduating and came to realize that not everyone has equitable opportunities in the education system. As a teacher, I hope to bring equitable opportunities for the future students I teach and show them that science is relatable more than they think. I plan to use this scholarship to dedicate myself to becoming a more complete teacher by joining professional developmental programs and paying off my student loans. I am thankful for this scholarship given by UCI and am truly grateful and now my mom can tell her friends her son won a scholarship! "
