I remember when my parents asked me about college and my job afterwards. I had some ideas, but I had no idea what a doctor, or a scientist, or a business person actually did.

When it was time to apply for school and jobs, my friends leaned on their family connections to get advice. I didn’t have a network or people who could help me, in fact I didn’t really know what a ‘network’ was.

I felt left out.

After speaking with people who had done the things I wanted to do, it started to make sense.

So that’s what a CEO did, and what a surgeon did.

If they could do it, why couldn’t I?

I started to believe that I could be a hero too.

I got some lucky breaks, and graduated from Cambridge and Stanford. It’s my mission to help others who felt left out get access to Heroes.

Everything Heroes is a community for STEM students to learn from Heroes in the real world. We’ll talk about college, grad school, careers, finances, family, and more.

Thank you for joining us.
