Episode 28 - Stephanie Espy - Brilliance is Her Name.
Few people on our planet are as scientifically sharp as Stephanie Espy. STEM
specialist and entrepreneur extraordinaire, she is author of STEM Gems which
gives girls and young women role models in STEM and opens their eyes to a world
of opportunity. Trained as a chemical engineer at MIT (with a masters from UC
Berkeley and an MBA from Emory) the most important role of her life is as a
mom. And by sharing her love of equations, formulas and the periodic table with
her daughter and others, she’s encouraging the next generation of engineers,
mathematicians and scientists.
Understanding but not accepting the gender gap is what fuels Stephanie. As one of only 19% of
women who earn bachelor’s degrees in engineering as well as one of the 3% of
Black or LatinX women awarded a bachelor’s degree in engineering, she is a
maverick on a mission to change the world. Listen to her story, her advice on
standardized testing (she owns a test prep and tutoring company too!) and how
she feels about college admission. Prepare to have your mind blown!!!
