Description

In Feb 2019, I participated in a Dragonfly Day speed networking event organised by The University of Manchester. Groups of local school girls aged 12-15 asked me questions about my education, career path and current job. The aim of the programme was for the girls to meet and chat with female staff working in STEM areas, improve their self-confidence and communication skills, challenge their perceptions of scientists and highlight careers they may not have considered.
