Reach for the Stars! | Kylie Hansen | TEDxTwinFalls

Even those with the biggest dreams of success can feel restricted by their environment. Kylie Hansen shares her story about how she overcame the barriers of her rural home town to go from a frustrated dreamer to MIT freshman. Kylie Hansen is a senior at Twin Falls High School planning to attend MIT this coming Fall with a major in Physics. Her most recent work in gravitational microlensing won her a place among the 2018 Regeneron Science Talent Search Scholars. Kylie’s scientific endeavors have also taken her to National Science Bowl and the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, as well as the Research Science Institute, which is one of the most prestigious summer science programs for high school students interested in STEM. At the end of the day, Kylie enjoys nothing more than to stretch out in her backyard, plug into electronic music, and stargaze, as she finds endless inspiration in the universe beyond Earth’s atmosphere.
