Ep. 101, Journey to a Mission

Season 9 of Underserved kicks off in-studio with our guest Tanya Bulkovshteyn. Tanya's family moved to Canada and quickly found out French immersion was not optional. Dad's push toward a technical career led her to computer science and the United States. Tanya describes how being a woman in the field has been at times a nice, novel way to stand out and others a hard way to fit in. This has led Tanya to help mentor other women coming up in the field and taught her the value of building a network of like-minded peers.   Links: https://www.butcherbox.com/ https://www.aspca.org/news/us-supreme-court-upholds-prop-12-preserving-landmark-protections-pigs-chickens-and-calves https://www.invaluable.com/ https://educaloi.qc.ca/en/capsules/charter-of-the-french-language/ https://extension.harvard.edu/ https://www.shegeeksout.com/ https://www.autismspeaks.org/
