Eliza Egemberdieva

Hello! My name is Eliza Egemberdieva, and I’m a 14-year-old with a deep passion for technology and innovation. Ever since I can remember, I’ve been drawn to tech-related environments that allow me to explore creative problem-solving and collaboration. In 2023, I earned first place in the Illinois Junior Academy of Science (IJAS) competition, a testament to my dedication to learning and applying scientific principles. In the summer of 2024, I was part of the Certified Squirrels team, and together, we won a competition through the SureStart MIT program. These experiences taught me the importance of critical thinking, teamwork, and resilience in achieving success. One of my greatest strengths is working with and communicating effectively with others. I actively listen, encourage collaboration, and ensure that everyone’s ideas have a chance to shine. I love helping bring concepts to life while fostering a positive and inclusive environment. I’m excited about opportunities to further develop my skills and contribute to meaningful projects that make an impact.
