Hi everyone! This week’s intern is Lauren 💙🌏💚 Hi! My name is Lauren Greene, and I am a Sophomore majoring in Computer Science. I am excited to be a part of the Bio/Diversity Data Science project because I have always been interested in the countless aspects of the environment and am eager to learn more and encourage others to be more passionate about these subjects. I have always been passionate about STEM subjects in school, but was still intimidated when picking a STEM major and therefore would love to encourage those with doubts to pursue a career in STEM. I am sure my enjoyment of these subjects will give younger students interest and ardor to follow their own passions, no matter the obstacles.
