Dr. Ashley Huderson, STEM and CS Equity Fellow with the U.S. Department of Education*, joins us live in the WE23 Diverse Podcast Studio to share about building STEM education and career pathways for individuals in underrepresented communities.
In conversation with Karen Horting, Executive Director and CEO of SWE, Dr Huderson details policies and programs that increase STEM access and exposure, such as the “YOU Belong in STEM” initiative.
She also reflects on the best advice from her father, the gifts that come with failure, and why students don’t need straight A’s to achieve success.
*Dr. Huderson is currently on sabbatical.
