About Irena Hwang

If you want to connect, please remind me how we met, or briefly describe what you\'d like to chat about!I have a background in engineering, and came to journalism by way of science communication. Because of my unconventional trajectory, I particularly enjoy chatting with students in STEM fields who are interested in journalism, as well as others with non-linear career paths.
