Natasha Underwood
Why an HBCU?
I wanted to get out of Boston and experience a new place.
How did it shape you?
It helped me grow and gain confidence as a Black woman and see other Black women excelling in sciences.
Most significant memory?
Founders Day and commencement are always special because of the opportunity to pause and reflect on the generations of women who have gone through the same traditions.
