"In my senior year, I got to go to two women’s math conferences ... I would not have known about those opportunities or even tried to go if it weren’t for the Pacific University department ... By the time I did my capstone project in April, I was completely prepared and just very confident in front of a crowd so I’m really grateful for those opportunities.”
