Small diatoms, big opportunities that shaped my professional & personal growth ?as an Asian American aquatic ecologist

I will share my own experience and professional development as an aquatic ecologist who studies diatoms and the opportunities I followed to become a scientist at EPA. I will share some of my current EPA projects on nutrients, taxonomic harmonization of diatom data, waste contaminants in Alaska, and environmental justice efforts.
