Nuclear Newswire

Read my recent article, “The indispensable value of a P.E. for entrepreneurs,” in Nuclear Newswire on the importance of getting a Professional Engineering license as part of your entrepreneurial journey. I have been a practicing professional engineer since 2010 and am licensed in the States of Maryland and Virginia and the District of Columbia. I have severed on the American Nuclear Society PE Exam Committee for the Nuclear PE Exam and authored multiple modules in the Nuclear PE Exam Study Guide.

 

Stories of Women in STEM: Energy

I had the incredible opportunity to be interviewed by the esteemed educators at the Smithsonian Science Education Center. My journey in STEM was featured in an e-book titled Stories of Women in STEM - Energy. Being able to share my experiences with such a prestigious institution is a true honor. I aspire that my story will serve as a source of inspiration for young Black women pursuing careers in STEM.

SciPolBites: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Science Policy

Read my recent blog post, “Breaking Barriers, Driving Innovation: The Importance of Inclusion in Science and Technology Policy“ I was invited to write for the National Science Policy Network. I share my insights on diversity, equity, and inclusion #DEI and how it relates to science policy and the systems that support scientific research.

 

History of Black Women in Engineering @ Howard

I am thrilled to announce the publication of my paper: Black Women in Higher Education: The Howard University Experience - College of Engineering in a special edition of the Working Paper Series by the Center for Women, Gender, and Global Leadership. As a Howard University alumna from the College of Engineering & Architecture, my co-author Ms. Celeste Brown and I analyzed Howard University's support for Black female engineers' progress in academia and the workforce. Our report examines gender representation in students, faculty, and leadership in the CEA. While Howard launched engineering programs in 1911, the first female graduate was in 1946. Despite challenges, progress has been made in increasing female graduates. Thank you to the contributors and supporters involved in this project.

Smithsonian Science Education Center: Energy!

Through my volunteer work with EngineerGril, I was able to work with wonderful educators at the Smithsonian Science for the Classroom to develop a curriculum on the topic of energy and sustainability. Energy! How can we ensure sustainable energy for all? - Part 2: Sources of Energy discusses the impact of nuclear energy on providing sustainable energy.
