8. Why are you interested in serving as a DDA Board Member? I have a personal investment in the future of Alpena as I envision a prosperous future for my future family and the local community. As a member of the Strong Town movement, a non-profit focusing on how cities develop; I strongly believe in their message advocating for cities to develop in a financially solvent, safe, livable, and inviting manner. I want to make meaningful change in my hometown to help guide our city to be a model Strong Town.
I hope to bring diversity to all who walk on the campus. My background has shaped me into the intelligent African American woman I am today. Without growing up in the “hood”, I may have not been able to find the best career that interested me. I also would not have been able over all the challenges thrown at me. Instead I remained determined and motivated so that I was able to achieve all of the goals set before me.

Thank you for the providing me with an opportunity to introduce myself. Currently, I am enrolled in the undergraduate program in business with an economics minor at Notre Dame of Maryland University. My passion to learn, innovate, collaborate and work have resulted in various employment opportunities which have helped shape my technical skill set and strong work ethic. I am highly motivated by the opportunity to learn. In terms of teamwork, I have learned from experience the importance of exposing one’s strengths and weaknesses to the team to allow the team to effectively capitalize on their members for the resulting synergy.
I choose to pursue a doctoral degree at Walden to further my knowledge in the business world (Beno, 2016). The pursuit of a doctoral degree would benefit my personal assessment, growth, and future business success (Basar, Altinay, Dagli, & Altinay, 2016). My Professional Development Plan will allow me to reach out and assist society with my business knowledge for change (Barker, 2014, p. 10).
I have successfully planned and executed workshops and programs that have significantly contributed to the academic and career development of students, and I am eager to bring this expertise to further enrich the MESA program. Moreover, I have demonstrated proficiency in both English and Spanish, allowing me to effectively communicate with a diverse student body and engage with various communities. My prior involvement in managing the Los Angeles Valley College Biotech academy and participating in grant implementation has honed my skills in grant compliance, and reporting, which will prove invaluable in overseeing the MESA program's activities and ensuring its success. Having worked with postsecondary students in STEM-based fields for four years, I understand the challenges and opportunities they face.
I want to tell Kristin that, we have a quality resemblance regarding our career path. I have the same goal as yours. My objective for achieving a MBA degree is to advance my career path and obtain a managerial level in the health care system. I hope we all gain more knowledge as well as great leadership and organization skill that allow us to improve overall quality of care in the hospital.
I am ready to take on the research portion of the program. As part of my personal development, I aim to excel in a career that I
As a member of BU and the Boston community at large, I have been involved in leadership roles that promote the participation of women in STEM fields. I am an officer and a mentor with the Girl Science Club, a Graduate Women in Science and Engineering (GWISE) outreach group (sciencegirlsclub.wordpress.com). Once a week, along with fellow GWISE members, I conduct science experiments with 8 and 9 year-old girls at The West End House Boys and Girls Club. I intend to actively participate in the GWISE community and continue my volunteer activity with the Girl Science Club throughout my Ph.D. studies, and beyond. As part of the BU Biogeoscience Program, I am organizing and coordinating an alumni career workshop, which is providing me with valuable
In the next four years of my life at Furman, I plan to cultivate a spirit of discovery, collaboration, and civic engagement. Because Furman is a liberal arts institution I believe that there will be so many chances to discover things I have never even heard of before. I plan on joining multiple organizations including the Heller Service Corps and the Shucker Center for Student Leadership. I believe that being a part of both of these organizations will allow me to not only expand my horizons and learn new things but help people at the same time. I will also be able to discover amazing new things by studying abroad.
By becoming part of Mentor UF, I would like to continue providing guidance and motivation to high school students and inspiring them to go to postsecondary institutions.
In a society that embraces the advancement of scientific knowledge, my desire to contribute in the field of science is incredibly strong. Specifically, I am greatly interested in the micro-sciences, such as biochemistry and general chemistry. These academic programs focus on the building blocks of all living and nonliving material throughout the universe. This research offers me endless opportunities to make a positive difference.
I aim to achieve this goal with the help of your institution by working hard, continually advancing my education, and using evidence-based findings to guide my
After receiving my PhD in Environmental Science and Public Policy from GMU, I will apply for post-doctoral fellowships at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, and Mote Marine Laboratory. There I can continue to perform research in the field of conservation biology for both nationally and internationally respected research programs while also learning from mentorships. During this time, and due to my graduate and post-graduate research, I will volunteer as an expert for the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Species Survival Commission. After completing my postdoctoral work, I will seek a position as an academic research scientist at a tier-one research university. As a professor, I want to engage students in research by becoming a mentor in an undergraduate research program if there is one.
My objective is to obtain a responsible and challenging position in which I can progress, and utilize the opportunity to advance this firm. In just 13 years of education you see a lot of growth. You see it within yourself as you watch your features change. You watch your body and mind grow alongside each other. You watch your friends change from being inseparable to being strangers with memories.
