What an incredible honor to be asked to speak at my high school's commencement! Writing these remarks was a very retrospective and healing experience in many ways, and I think gives a really great sense of what I value and what I am like.
(And to brag a tiny bit, the NBS faculty said this was one of the best Commencement speeches in the last 10-20 years, which made my year ☺️🙈)

(did I accidentally talk about 10,000 exoplanets around stars in "our solar system" instead of "our galaxy"? um pshhhhhhh um, no I didn't)
