After making the Dean's List at University of Colorado, Denver for five semesters in a row, I was invited to be a part of the NSLS. Not only did this show me that my hard work and dedication was opening doors for me that I had previously believed would remain closed, it has given me the opportunity to attend meetings and workshops with other members and has given me access to scholarships.
