#129 - Yona Nebel-Jacobsen: Geochemistry
Manage episode 337442430 series 3381191
Today's storyteller is Dr Yona Nebel-Jacobsen! Yona is a geochemist based in Melbourne Australia, she works with isotopes, and she teaches me so much cool geology straight away. In this episode we talk about what a geochemist does, if it was the "geo" or the "chem" part that appealed to her, the nonlinear twisty path she took to her current position, and about all things in between. Yona is also part of Homeward Bound in the 4th cohort (I'm in the 5th) and so we talk a bit about our experiences in the HB program too. I love meeting fellow HBers and instant friends and so that's been a fun bonus of this whole podcast project. So it was doubly wonderful to meet Yona, hear her stories, and I hope y'all enjoy!
