A diligent student who also runs cross country and rows crew, Maria says, "Participating in this program was an absolutely incredible experience! From this, I have gained confidence as well as life-long friendships with girls who share the same desire to make a positive impact on the world. I am also really looking forward to the opportunity to promote my platform, encouraging young girls to pursue STEM fields, this upcoming year."
