Show Notes

The conversation was so good, we had to do it again. In this conversation, we talk about the importance of taking a minute during your day to reflect on the good and the bad. We talk about being an introvert and the energy that we take in and give out and how we recharge. In this episode, we really get into being a Black woman in STEM, having our voices heard, and demanding what we are worth.

And of course, we continue the conversation on data and the importance of it and the space that Black women take up in the world of data. Data is the fuel that runs algorithms.
