      Hemanshi Galaiya is a PhD student by day and a trailblazing entrepreneur by night. In this episode, Kirsty chats with Hemanshi about her inspiring journey from her childhood in Kenya to founding a transformative STEM education initiative, Young Stripes, to address educational inequities. Hemanshi shares stories from her early life, where a lack of resources fueled her creativity and love for science.
