Learning to Treat Yourself. Life As an Academic Nomad from Singapore with Ying Qi Wong
Description
Our first guest on the podcast in 2023 is Ying Qi Wong. As a Singaporean native, she's spent over a decade in the US, UK, and Switzerland for her education and academic career. After completing her PhD at Stanford, she moved to Switzerland where she is now a post-doc at ETH Zurich, specializing in volcanoes.
What really stood out in our conversation with Ying Qi is her ability to meet new people, and how she’s able to build a new network of friends everywhere she goes. Although this did not come naturally for her at first, it was developed through experience.
This episode dives into the life of an international student and a career in academia that will inspire you to grow with her story over time.
We hope you enjoy our talk and would love to hear what resonated the most with you from our conversation.
