What I learned through Pioneer

Before participating in Pioneer, I had never done any real research. Through the program, I had the opportunity to explore a topic I had always been interested in—and that alone was exciting. But beyond that, I really feel like I grew as a person. Pioneer didn’t just teach me how to do research—it changed me for the better.
