I love having knowledge to share and mentor women In STEM engineering and to be able to teach children and adults music. I love that I am no longer afraid of the things that I felt like I couldn't do when I was young. Being not afraid to fail is how we learn and sharing that knowledge with the future engineers of tomorrow.
How do you stay fabulous?I try to eat right, hug my friends and family, do good deeds, do charity work, get decent sleep, and help people as much as I can. Helping others makes me feel great in my heart and when you do this, the positivity makes you feel love and gives you the ability to radiate happiness. Have childlike wonder, curiosity about everything and how it works, unbridled joy, and a thirst for knowledge and regard for your fellow man. Be known for your good deeds.
What would you do with the $40,000?I always try to donate half of it to charity and the rest I would probably invest in the arts and giving back to the arts community and engineering communities. This is a very generous prize and thank you to the people that have provided this amazing gift.
