A mind is a terrible thing to waste, yet back in the mid-’70’s, I, personally, witnessed, the waste of countless of brilliant minds at UMCP. This was before CMSE and BES were formulated. We decided that we needed to do something to stop the wasteful trend, so we founded CMSE and BES to help to achieve the 3R’s, recruit, retain and release qualified minorities from the University of Maryland, into the fields of science and engineering. Over the past 40 years, I have witnessed many academic and career success stories of minority graduates from UMCP, and I am committed to helping this trend continue. I believe that the achievement of the 3 R’s remains an important goal at UMCP, the CMSE, and the BES and I am looking for others who share my vision.

Whatever drive and fire that you have right now in shaping your future, never stop fueling it. However, it's okay to take a step back and to just BE in the moment; to just focus on the now. Learn how to enjoy the fruits of your labor and to know when its time to focus on your mental, physical, and spiritual health. It's easy to lose yourself while pursuing your dreams. You want to be the best "you" when its time to level up in the future, and sometimes taking a step back and existing in the moment is needed in order to do that.
