"I can trace my entire scientific career trajectory back to one phone call on Sunday, May 13, 2007. The Science Olympiad National Championships were a week away. We needed a whole new design and to build at least four new balsa wood towers with that design before we left. When we got to the competition, I held my breath and slowly increased the weight on the tower, bit by bit, until we reached the 15-kilogram maximum for testing. The tower then wobbled for just a second — long enough to have been considered successful — before snapping into pieces and falling to the floor. I exhaled. I could hear my mom and coach yelling from the back of the room already. We won. It was the first and only national championship for our school’s Science Olympiad program. The 2007 National Science Olympiad Championship was a long time ago, but both consciously and subconsciously, that moment has stayed with me for the rest of my scientific career. I knew that against the odds and in the face of adversity, I could do it. My work was just as good as anyone else’s and might even be the best in the country."
