NomineeBio
As a cybersecurity major currently working toward my BA in Cybersecurity and with ambitions of pursuing a master's in cyberpsychology, I have a unique opportunity to inspire the next generation. In my role in higher education, I engage with elementary students through STEM presentations, sharing my passion for both cybersecurity and the evolving field of cyberpsychology. I discuss my journey and the diverse possibilities that a career in STEM can offer, from coding and robotics to the intriguing blend of technology and psychology. Through hands-on demonstrations and interactive discussions, I encourage young minds—especially young women—to explore these dynamic fields and consider the innovative intersections between technology, security, and human behavior.
