The STEM Summit I learned that life has its challenges and hardships, that even though we are just starting life and starting to face the struggles ahead, we should not give up on our goals and dreams. We should always work hard, not for the company, but for ourselves. We should always do our best because we never know who is watching us whether we do wrong or right, and if we are seen doing right that person watching could be the one to help me get to the next level. I learned to network because I can use these connections to further myself in my career as same as I can help them and be able to branch out. Mrs. Rosetti’s phrase starstruck me because I learned what I do with my time is valuable.  

Creating my 60-Second Elevator helped me to be ready to introduce myself, be prepared for what I can say, what can I fix before introducing myself, and practice being more confident introducing myself in 60 seconds to sound professional and not be nervous while introducing myself.
