Betzie Rosario

Hi! My name is Betzie Rosario, and I am a junior at Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics. I love science because it's connected to everything, which never ceases to fascinate me. Everywhere I look, there is science, for example, the soap I use to wash dishes or the chemicals in foods that make foods tasty. I want to continue learning about science, specifically, the research aspect of science, which is why I joined SMRI. One thing about SMRI that excites me is the opportunity to be mentored by someone adept in research. I think it would be very advantageous to interact with someone who has similar interests in science as me and has reached many achievements in their career like graduating from college, entering grad school, etc. Having a mentor will also allow me to learn more about science and more about what I want to do career wise in my future, so having a mentor is definitely something I'm excited about.
