Prototypes, it’s been six months since the STEM SYNC Podcast debuted on April 19, 2022, with my “why” story. Guess what? 20 guests later the STEM Sync Podcast is celebrating a successful Season 1 ending with a few of your favorite guests. Episode 2 introduced you the impetus behind the Podcast launch, Ms. Erika Jefferson of Black Women in Science and Engineering (BWISE), and her then Chief of Staff, Ms. Augusta Uwamanzu-Nna. Today’s episode brings the new BWISE Chief of Staff to the mic, Ms. Lauren Adegoke, as we catch up with the ladies hearing about their last six months. Tune in to the Season 1 Finale Episode 20 to understand the importance of finding a space to exhale. Now let’s sync!
Erika received her MBA from Georgia Tech and her BS in Chemical Engineering from LSU. She has worked for top companies such as Amoco, Chevron, and Praxair in a myriad of leadership and executive roles ranging from sales/business development to supply chain and operations excellence. Augusta Uwamanzu-Nna is a Black woman, 2020 graduate in Bioengineering from Harvard College who aims to become a physician-scientist to develop equitable diagnostic tools to help combat health disparities. She is currently pursuing a MD/PhD degree in the Medical Scientist Program at the University of California San Francisco. Lauren is the second BWISE Fellow as the Chief of Staff of Black Women in Science and Engineering. She is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering at the University of North Texas. She will graduate in December 2022 and is still deciding what career path she will follow.
