CREATOR PROFILE

Elissia Franklin

Chemist & Ph.D. Student

Splitting her time between Chicago and doctoral research, Elissia works at the intersection of science communication and community building. Her platform—built specifically for women of color navigating STEM careers—grew from a personal experience of being underrepresented in research settings, and continues to function as both a resource hub and a rallying point for a growing professional community.
