On this week’s episode of The PolicyViz Podcast, I chat with the organizers of the DC chapter of the Data+Women Meetup group, Brittany Fong, Julie Kim, Emily Kund, and Erin Simpler. We talk about the current state of the group, challenges women face in the workforce, discussions they’ve had at meetings so far, and what they hope to accomplish with the group going forward.
Please take just a minute to rate and review the show iTunes to help others learn about it and tune in each and every week.
