"Ever since middle school I knew that I wanted to become an engineer because I loved math and wanted not just to study the theory of math but to use math to change the world we live in. I understood that there would be few people who looked like me in my major of choice but since engineering is what I was passionate about I did not let these facts deter me; but I did keep these things in mind when I looked for possible colleges and univiersities to attend. I decided I wanted to attend the University of Delaware because of the support that the College of Engineering provides to underrepresented groups in engineering through the Women in Engineering Program and also the RISE Program. I knew that in order for me to be successful in college, I needed to have a supportive group of people around me and this is what Delaware provided me. "
