Do you believe becoming a professional requires getting into debt because of the additional education?

Dr. Flores is a polymer chemist, author of a patent and of more than half a dozen peer-review publications. She became a podcaster with the launch of Latinx Can, a podcast highlighting the stories of Latinx professionals and the tips and tricks that helped them turn their dreams into reality.
