ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
My name is Fiona Schweig, and I'm working on a project to help inspire female-identifying students to get into STEM and to try to narrow the gender gaps in these fields. In each episode, I interview a new, inspiring woman in STEM. I believe that by connecting students to positive female role models, we can create a new generation of female scientists, mathematicians, and engineers who will lead the way to an equal future. This project is for my Girl Scouts Gold Award.
