I love that [TWISTER] exists! It’s great to see so many amazing women willing to set aside time from their day to encourage younger girls to believe in themselves and take on a technical career path.
- Ashley Parks, CEO of Aloncii, Inc.
TWISTER seeks female role-models currently working in science, technology, engineering, research, or math-related fields who would like the opportunity to positively impact high school women interested in STEM. Presenters are asked to prepare and present a 55-minute session for 20-25 participants; session should include a hands-on activity relative to your topic.

If you have any questions about presenting or volunteering, contact TWISTER@adventuresci.org.

“I loved that there is such an event for girls! I like to think that I learned as much as the girls did when I was a room assistant and listened to the presentations. It’s one thing to learn of various areas of science related fields, but it is entirely different to see female role models present their experiences in such an intimate setting.”
- Linda Turner, Key Account Executive at Cumberland Electric Membership Corp., Women’s International Network of Utility Professionals (WiNUP)
Presenters and volunteers can contact TWISTER@adventuresci.org with questions.
