Why did you obtain an advanced degree? What inspired you to pursue a STEM-related career?

I decided to pursue an advanced degree because I wanted to become a research professor. After learning more about the roles of a research professor (mentor, grant writer, lecturer, etc.), as a graduate student, I knew it was the perfect profession for me. 

 

What has led to success in your field?
