Synopsis
Kim and Diana are a powerhouse duo that co-chair the MinneAnalytics MinneWiADS conference (https://minneanalytics.org/minnewiads/). They come to careers in data science and analytics in Minnesota from across the globe - Kim from Cambodia, Diana from Sri Lanka. But those decidedly non-Midwestern roots are only part of the story. Along the way they each found a need for mentors, for support - each had male allies who raised up their stories and their voices (and who, eventually, introduced them to each other), and each found there were gaps in what and how they learned as their careers developed. Our conversation with them takes us through their journeys, and why they are passionate about creating communities by and for women, to support women, and to raise up their voices.
