Personal Reflection
Graduate school at UW–Madison and in the AAE department pushed me harder than I ever expected, especially during the process of completing my thesis, which challenged me to think critically, manage uncertainty, and persevere through setbacks. It built my resilience, sharpened my skills, and fueled my passion for tackling real-world problems. I'm excited to take everything I've learned into the next chapter of my career!
