Yewande Biala
Publisher's Summary
Joining us at Audible Studios is social media influencer, now author, Yewande Biala.
Growing up in Dublin, Biala focused on science, completing an undergraduate and master's degree in Pharmaceutical Quality Assurance and Regulation. However, in 2019, she left her job as a professional scientist to take part in reality television series Love Island. Following her departure from the show, Biala became a social media influencer and published articles discussing racial re-naming and the damage it causes. The huge interest in this article led her to write her first book, Reclaiming, which discusses everything from microaggressions, to career choices.
We talked with Yewande Biala about Reclaiming, asking how she made her way as a Black woman in STEM, what impact she hopes to make with the book, and how her dating life is going now.
