Pursuing a PhD, Pregnancy Worklife, and Asking for Support with Dr. Maaike Zwart, Computer Scientist and Mathematician

Welcome to Wellness and Women in Tech, the podcast that brings you inspiring stories from women who are breaking barriers and making a difference in the tech industry. I'm Leigh Olesen, your host and a coach for women in tech.

In this week's episode, I'm excited to speak with Doctor Maaike Zwart, a brilliant computer scientist and mathematician doing a mix of type theory and category theory postdoc research on the mathematics behind computer science. We'll delve into her experiences with pursuing a PhD, writing a thesis remotely, moving to a new country for work, and juggling the demands of work, pregnancy, and personal life. We'll also talk about the value of asking for help and the importance of emotional communication in relationships. Whether you're a woman in tech looking for inspiration and guidance, or someone committed to creating a more inclusive and diverse tech industry, stay tuned for an insightful and inspiring conversation.
