<h2>TIMESTEP</h2>
</a>
<p>
The Tucson Initiative for Minoritized Engagement in Science and
Technology Program (TIMESTEP), initiated by Astronomy Professor Dr.
Gurtina Besla in 2015, focuses on fostering success among
underrepresented undergraduates in academia while addressing
stereotypes in STEM fields. As a student leader within TIMESTEP, I
spearheaded efforts to provide mentorship, facilitate discussions on
academic navigation and industry opportunities, and participated in
workshops aimed at combating stereotypes and enhancing career
development skills. I remain engaged as an occasional panelist,
offering insights and support as requested.

<h2>UA Astronomy Club</h2>
</a>
<p>
I joined the UA Astronomy Club in 2014, initially as a member, and
later serving as Outreach Coordinator and President. Here, I
endeavored to enhance STEM education accessibility by expanding our
outreach program to have a larger presence in the Tucson community.
I initiated partnerships with local schools, providing telescope
viewings and developing engaging STEM activities for children at no
cost, aiming to highlight strong women and underrepresented
scientists in our academic community. Additionally, in an effort to
improve resources for undergraduate success, I established a regular
tutoring program for upper-division Physics/Astronomy courses not
provided by university tutoring services. I also fervently advocated
and successfully lobbied for increased department funding for the
club to support the growth of our outreach initiatives. Thanks to
these efforts, it is now one of the largest undergraduate astronomy
organizations in the country.

<h2>Astronomy Camp</h2>
</a>
<p>
In 2015, I began working alongside Dr. Don McCarthy overseeing the
Astronomy Camp program at Kitt Peak and Mt. Lemmon, where I've been
dedicated to nurturing the curiosity of numerous young science
enthusiasts. Over several weeks each year, I oversee the students'
welfare, manage operations, and lead engaging all-night observing
sessions using state-of-the-art telescopes. I curate educational
content, including computational astronomy projects, and employ
inquiry-based learning techniques to instill fundamental principles
of astronomy, physics, engineering, environmental science, and
computing. Through hands-on experiences with large-aperture
telescopes, electronic instrumentation, and astronomy image
processing software, students explore the intricacies of real
research methods. Beyond nurturing a deeper understanding of space
sciences, this program fosters lasting friendships within a
supportive community.
