“Bronx Science shaped my life. It taught me that I could think critically, it taught me that I could hold my own with really smart people, it taught me that it’s ok to be different from everyone else […] I always kind of felt like an outsider, but I found my group, and we were all outsiders [...] I stole a doorknob from one of the classrooms, which I still have, because I wanted to have a physical memory of the school. So I’m on the lam.”
