“If you're passionate about research, it’ll come through. Even just applying is worthwhile as you learn so much along the way."
Tell us a little bit about the Goldwater Scholarship and what inspired you to apply.
Tell us a little bit about your Watson project and where it has taken you this year!
My project is centered on peer-led harm reduction work, so I’ve been spending time with non-profits where people who use drugs are providing services and/or advocating for their communities. So far, I’ve been partnered with Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users in Canada, É de Lei in Brazil, Harm Reduction Victoria in Australia, IDUCARE in the Philippines, and Indonesian Drug Users Network in Indonesia.
"The Watson provides truly extraordinary, transformative opportunities. And that’s true not only for those who win the fellowships, but also for every student brave enough to delve into their deepest curiosities and to explore the most creative ways they might aspire to contribute to their communities and to the world."
“The The Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program will give me a community of like-minded thinkers and builders who were on a similar mission to make research more actionable, accessible, and applicable to the everyday realities of those whom we ‘research.’”
"I realized that there was so much to my story that aligned with the Knight-Hennessy Scholarship without trying to fit a particular mold. I'd suggest other students think deeply about their values – the Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program is very much a value-driven community, just like Wellesley – and share their global mission."
