About
STEMinist Empowered was born from Dr. Grayson's own experiences in academia and industry as a Black woman in STEM. Seeing a lack of representation in the spaces she entered, she was motivated to create a space to empower, support and encourage women of color who pursue graduate degrees. Her goal is to increase the pipeline of women of color, especially Black women graduating with advanced degrees by providing mentorship, community, and resources.
STEMinist Empowered is here to support you through any aspect of the journey. From personal statement revisions to one-on-one mentorship that may be needed to deal with challenges throughout the graduate path. As we continue to advance and create an environment where our future leaders include strong women of color, this organization provides a place where challenges on the journey to success can be shared.
