Valerie Ann Pérez Medina

I learned programming languages like MATLAB that have helped me in classes and allowed me to analyze data in a project I recently started. Tools like this will help me become a better engineer, scientist, and researcher. I treasured meeting grad students, undergraduates, and faculty from different backgrounds and sharing stories about overcoming obstacles. These experiences taught me that, with perseverance, I can achieve my goals.
