Research suggests that when young girls are able to see themselves in women who rise to the top of their fields, or understand that no career path or topic of study is off-limits, it can have a ripple effect that shapes the rest of their lives.
@themayasharma a high school student from Washington State, is already paying it forward to the next generation of female leaders. She's the author of "Paving," a new book featuring 25 interviews with a remarkable list of inspiring women, from New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern to Pulitzer Prize-winning White House reporter Ashley Parker.
In this interview, Maya shares some of her reasons for undertaking this effort, her biggest takeaways from the wide range of interviews, and the importance of activism among younger generations.
Today, I honor and thank #the25 women who made my book Paving possible. Their support and encouragement means everything to me. Thank U from the bottom of my heart. May you continue to inspire young girls like me.

Her quote in @themayasharma's book - "Evidence based decision making, kindness, empathy, the principle of guardianship that we have to hand this world over to the next generation" in response to Maya's question - What leadership principles to you live by? remains an inspiration.
Earlier this year, @Society4Science selected top 300 young scientists in the country as part of their Regeneron Science Competition. Prof. David Mazziotti at University of Chicago runs an NSF funded program that invites select high school students
I am so honored that my paper “Computational Analysis of Specific Indicators to Manage Crop Yield and Profits Under Extreme Heat and Climate Change Conditions” was also amongst the ones that were selected.
So crazy that it's already been a year! Time flies by so fast! Thanks to everyone who supported the book, I'm so grateful for every opportunity. Happy 1st birthday Paving! 😀🙏
