Capital Region Women in STEM

This page collects the various interviews done by NATURE Lab intern, Sophia Cahillane, with women in STEM fields. The idea for this came about before Sophia even joined the Sanctuary, but once she heard of the radio station here, she decided to put together a series of interviews with professional women in different STEM fields. To all the young women out there who are interested in STEM, but aren’t sure if they will succeed, these women have done it, Sophia is doing it, and you can do it, too.
