   Why did you choose a STEM field? What interests you about STEM fields?     I chose to pursue a degree in Environmental Science because I am passionate about protecting nature. I grew up playing in the dirt and swimming in the Mississippi River so I have been naturally drawn to the outdoors. I have lived and worked in some very biodiverse places and I am motivated to preserve our plants and animals for generations to come. I like that I have a lot of flexibility in STEM fields. I can work in policy, education, research labs, non-profits and government positions. I really like science and math classes as well. They are challenging but rewarding.
