I established MAPP as a platform dedicated to driving innovative development through the intersection of arts and sciences. Over the past two decades, I have been committed to leading interdisciplinary projects that enhance youth education, promote gender empowerment, advance science communication, and spread forward-thinking ideas. It has been both humbling and inspiring to see the positive impact our programs have had in expanding opportunities for civic engagement and innovation. I invite you to take this opportunity to join me in building a community, a culture and to inspire our future generations.
