What did you want to be when you were younger? I bet it was not your current career. Dr. Sharon Jones wanted to be a radio dj called Sharky Sharon and instead became the founder of the Dottie Rose Foundation, which encourages and supports girls in the STEM fields. In this episode, Sharon talks with Elizabeth about how interests change throughout our life and that is ok. When we embrace curiosity and learning, we can develop our STEM strengths and apply them in any number of careers. Dr. Sharon Jones is the brainchild behind the Dottie Rose Foundation, which encourages girls to find their STEM strength through classes, workshops, and camps.
