FASCINATING FACT ABOUT ME “I love LEGOs! My little sister and cousin really drew me in with the amazing frameworks they'd build and I couldn't stop experimenting with all the cool things LEGOs allowed you to do. I spent my first year in the US as a volunteer at the Brooklyn Public Library teaching kindergarten and elementary school children how to create interesting structures and robots with those fun little blocks.”
“I played Division I football at the University of Kentucky and graduated with a BS in Community & Leadership Development before returning to school to pursue a passion in Astronomy.”
