Mentors Make It Possible

      Comments Off on Mentors Make It Possible

The mentors for my fellowship were Dr.Jesse Jur and Dr.Elena Veety from the ASSIST Center on NC State’s Centennial Campus.  I enjoyed working on a university campus with professors.  Jess and Elena worked with us as peers and allowed time to work individually.  We also worked in groups with other fellowship members to create a new project.  Most of the fellowship we were working independently with input from Jess and Elena.  They provided multiple “ah-ha” moments for me throughout my fellowship; I feel like I learned something new everyday.  Elena will be attending a Women in STEM event hosted by the AFHS WISE Club in April.  I know that I can reach out to them with questions concerning anything we studied over the summer.  I look forward to working with Jess and Elena in the future.
