\”The Bayar Fellowship was an exciting and transformative experience for me. During the week of August 12th to August 18th, 2024, I dove into a series of workshops and projects that challenged me to think in new and innovative ways. Even though I didn’t know my mentor or peers beforehand, the fellowship provided an environment that encouraged growth, creativity, and connection. The program offered a unique chance to explore my interests in marketing and political science more deeply, giving me valuable tools and perspectives that I know will be instrumental in my future endeavors. It was a week of learning that has left me feeling more confident and inspired to pursue my goals.\”
