A holistic approach to success
Three activities that helped me to thrive in academia and beyond
I am an accredited material scientist with a strong polymer chemistry background, an introvert-turned-ambivert, a person who can confidently uproot themselves and build a life somewhere new (which has its unique set of hurdles as a young woman who is a British-born Ghanaian and a Londoner). My merits, and the uncovering of my weaknesses, came to be because I said ‘yes’ to pursuing an academic career path.
