"I am not daunted by the number of unknown paths my life could take professionally. Rather, I’m excited by the fruitful and fulfilling careers that I walk in and towards, and the many different skills I have been able to hone at Princeton in preparation. I so appreciate all the opportunities here to explore and learn. I’m thrilled to see what being a University Administrative Fellow will lead to. I am familiar with GradFUTURES not only through the many emails and events I've learned of, but also through my own department's recent efforts to place more emphasis on professionalization. So far, my experience with GradFUTURES has been nothing short of lovely, and I look forward to future engagement."
