Local Leaders in STEM

Harvard University freshman and Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology alumna Kavya Kopparapu was chosen as one of Time Magazine’s most influential teens of 2018. The accolade capped off an exciting year for Kopparapu — she was named a Davidson Institute fellow and a Regeneron Science Talent Search finalist, adding to her distinction as a 2017 WebMD Health Hero.

Kristy Clark, chief engineer for Vencore, Renee Wynn, chief information officer at NASA, and Ted Davies, CEO of Altamira, addressed that and other questions during a panel discussion moderated by Ed Swallow of The Aerospace Corp. at the fifth annual K-12 STEM Symposium.
