Professional/Academic Experience
Hello there, I am Stephania! My journey of higher education began when I enrolled
at Aims Community College in January of 2016. At Aims, I quickly joined the honor
society known as the National Society of Leadership and Success. After graduating
with my associate degree in Anthropology, I transferred to the University of Colorado
in the city of Boulder. However, in a wonderful turn
of events, life brought me to the doors of the University of Northern Colorado (UNCO).
Currently, I spend my time maintaining my 4.0 GPA and preparing to conduct original
research with the help of the McNair Scholars Program staff and insightful UNCO professors.
I plan to graduate in May of 2020. Afterwards, I will attend graduate school in hopes
to receive my doctorates degree. With the skills I acquire in graduate school, I plan
to conduct research on bonobos, one of our closest relatives, in order to improve
human health. Thank you for devoting the time to read a quick overview of my academic
career and goals.
