Season 1 Episode 5

Mother. Organizer. Public Servant. Academic Bridge Builder. These are just a few of the words that describe this episode's guest, Mytoan Nguyen-Akbar. A California girl, she found herself in the cold Midwest for graduate school. Many of her undergraduate mentors had PhDs and held non faculty positions. They modeled possibilities and the many ways that she could put her doctorate to use.
