As we reach the end of the year 2024, I want to thank our Board of Trustees, our STEAMpark, INC. staff and teachers, our supporters that spent their time building content, volunteered online and onsite and parents who enabled their children to learn and build their STEM fundamentals with us.
Here is an excerpt that I presented at the end of fall semester of STEM fair attended by the #STEMgirls and their parents.
It is a pleasure to be here with all of you today to talk about something truly close to my heart—empowering young girls through science-based learning. At STEAMpark, INC. Inc., our mission is simple yet powerful: to inspire and equip the next generation of women leaders in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics—fields that have long been underrepresented by girls and women.
We believe that science is not just a subject in school; it's a tool for unlocking creativity, problem-solving, and innovation. When girls are introduced to STEM concepts at an early age, they begin to see themselves not just as learners, but as doers, creators, and innovators. Science-based learning builds critical thinking skills, fosters curiosity, and encourages girls to question, explore, and invent—building the foundation for future success.
But it’s not just about knowledge—it's about confidence. At STEAMpark, we are committed to helping girls believe in their potential, to feel supported in their learning, and to know that their ideas matter. By providing hands-on, engaging experiences, and interaction with role models from high school @teenboard members to university professors and drug development scientists, we enable them to take risks, make mistakes, and grow. We want every girl to feel empowered to pursue her dreams, whether she envisions herself as an engineer, a mathematician, a coder, a doctor, an artist, or a scientist.
Together, we can change the narrative. Let’s inspire our girls to see the world of science as a world of opportunity, where they belong, where they can excel, and where they can make a lasting impact
