I always try to be a great addition to the conversation, especially if the topic of the discussion touches upon something I am an expert at. As I was working on my research project throughout the year, I am also a very active member and one of the officers for my high school FIRST Robotics Competition team, 178 (The 2nd Law Enforcers). During the discussion of the application of artificial intelligence in building our robot, I have realized it is my turn to do service for my team and talk more about it, as someone who read multiple scholarly articles about AI and knows the nuances of them very well. I'm glad that the team has a place for sharing ordinary ideas, in addition to also having space for experts to speak, especially for those who know a lot about the subject.

When it comes to any problem, it is important to bring diverse perspectives and people to have the most effective discussion with many different possible solutions and answers to the problem. As I would meet with different people, I appreciate the diversity I had with community contacts. The majority of the contacts may have come from the same (University of New Haven / GenCyber Agent Academy), but the people I have met with either specialized in more than just cybersecurity that influenced their perspective, or had diverse personal backgrounds. Through this experience, in addition to also this being mentioned by different community contacts, building cultural competence is important due to how many benefits it can have when it comes to searching for the answer or solution to the problem.
