Kristen Reynolds, PhD Student studying Race & Technology
On today's episode, Kristen Reynolds and talk about her full circle journey in STEM, the importance of advocating for yourself, and not being afraid of leaving a program that's not serving you or treating you well. I hope you enjoy! BTW: we do discuss police violence from minute 16 -17. We do not go into detail and I think it provides valuable context, but I want to provide this content warning.
