Meet Your Scientista Ambassador

Hello, my name is Brenda, and to start, I'd like to say that as the first campus ambassador for Drexel U., I would like to welcome and thank you for visiting this blog and taking interest in the Scientista Foundation! I am not only ecstatic to bring the Scientista Foundation to Drexel, but also optimistic for what the Foundation will bring to the women in STEMM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine). You will soon see how the Scientista Foundation supports, encourages, and guides individuals throughout their stay at Drexel.

I would also like to invite you to read the below (brief) biography about myself to better familiarize yourself with who I am.  Additionally, I've also included a slideshow composed of a variety of my own personal photos. 

"Brenda is an undergraduate student at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a proud resident of South Philadelphia, originally from the Pine Barrens of New Jersey. As a Biology major, Brenda developed a true appreciation for all aspects of the sciences and her later goal is to continue her education in medical school, to pursue a career in medicine. Her ultimate goal and dream is becoming a Pulmonary and Critical Care (ICU) specialist. Brenda believes that medicine, her favorite field of study, encompasses all of the sciences. She hopes to be not only a successful scientist, but a successful physician as well. In her spare time, Brenda enjoys spending time at home with her two cats and significant other. As a hobby, she also enjoys photography, during which she likes to unwind and relax, and appreciate the life she has. With the Scientista Foundation, Brenda wishes to encourage women to follow their dreams, be proud of who they are, what they accomplish, and to remain resilient, even in times of despair."
