My Career, My Story - Prof. Madison Ngafeeson

MY CAREER, MY STORY: HOW I BECAME ME IN CAREER AND INFLUENCE.
The 2nd ASFI Annual Conference and Boot Camp included a session termed “My Career, My Story: How I Became Me in Career and Influence”. In this session of the event, we invited 3 African scientists who have made exemplar successes in their scientific career journey to share the story of their career journey: how they came to where they are right now; what were their opportunities; what were their challenges; what were their strategies to navigate through the journeys; what were their critical decision points; what were their milestones; etc.
The speakers told their career stories in 3 categories:
A typical African woman scientist
An African scientist who made his/her career mainly in the diaspora
An African scientist who made his/her career mainly in Africa
Professor Madison Ngafeeson spoke in the category of an African who made his career mainly in the diaspora.
