Why Information Sciences: I am interested in information sciences because I believe it is important to understand the relationship between people, information, and technology. Information is a powerful asset, and combining it with technology is the reason the world operates in the way that it does today. Essentially, information is everywhere, and it carries into everything you do on a daily basis. I am specifically focused on data analytics because I want to be able to give numbers meaning and present them in a way that is understandable to everyone.
