Coming of age, I loved LEGOs as much as I loved reading. As I juggled my time between science club and literary magazine club, I started to wonder if there was a way I could combine my interests. In eighth grade, I did so by launching an organization that tackled this very issue. I called it STEMATIX.
I started by gathering eleven friends who wrote articles that we published and distributed amongst a small circle of friends. As more and more people became excited about this idea of connecting STEM and journalism, we broadened our reach and contacted STEM and humanities institutions worldwide. The response I received was enthusiastic: schools all the way from Chile to Cameroon joined our growing STEMATIX family. As enthusiasm for our project grew, so did our sights. We launched additional media: a blog, video content and podcasts. Furthermore, we started organizing events that encouraged “STEM kids” to broaden their communication skills. Within our tight-knit network, I am continuously exposed to a diverse range of perspectives that I deeply treasure. My experiences as a middle schooler, split between the humanities and sciences, prompted me to launch STEMATIX and continue to expand this organization for many years to come. |
