In this episode , I got to interview Anna Ampaw, a PhD student, an emerging SciCommer and a passionate educator.  She strives to share my knowledge and try to eliminate the idea of science being difficult. Growing up in different areas of Canada, she was usually one of the only few "dark-skinned" females in my classes, and then when she got into a science program in university, she saw the same thing. She would like to see this change and she would like to see more women of colour taking positions in the STEM fields.  Listen Now to Anna's inspiring STEM story.    Links: IG: https://www.instagram.com/anna_thechemist FB: https://www.facebook.com/anna_thechemist
