What can I tap into to try to optimize, to improve these outcomes

My name is Armita Jamshidi, and I'm a senior, double
0:16
majoring in computer science and college scholar.
0:20
I chose computer science because I think it opens doors
0:23
to so many different industries
0:24
and gives people the opportunity to really have an impact in these fields that
0:28
normally, computer scientists wouldn't really touch.

0:34
We make snacks that counteract
0:36
nutritional deficiencies associated with menstrual cramps.

0:42
really bad cramps that actually brought me to the emergency room.

After that experience, I realized how few resources women have
0:49
to tackle their menstrual cramps.

Part of Cornell and part of Bowers specifically is like exploring
1:02
that curiosity.
