This paper was written in the spring semester of my sophomore year. I enjoyed writing this paper because going through all the goals that were provided, I realized how much I have been growing as a scientist. The different professors that I’ve had since being here have shaped me in different ways, whether that be in writing, how I approach my grades, how I approach research, etc. I realized that simply just listening to my professors critiques and taking the time to actual do those critiques has helped me tremendously. I can’t wait for the future to come and to expand my capabilities, and maybe even find new ones along the way!
