Cyber Scholars, Y4

CWIT and Cyber Scholars have connected me to many intelligent and kind people. The program feels like a family and I value the relationships I have formed very much. Furthermore, being a Cyber Scholar has given me many great opportunities to connect with professionals in my field, as well as helped me kick start my career. Thanks to these connections, I have been hired as an intern in T. Rowe Price’s Enterprise Security team. I am excited about my future in the Cyber Security field because it will allow me to help people by keeping their information secure and use the skills I have learned at UMBC.
