Sure Science Consulting

Over the weekend (March 17 & 18) we had the honour of participating in a series of children’s workshops on Women in STEM. The series was produced by the Canadian Multicultural Inventors Museum and hosted by the Clark Centre for the Arts in the Guildwood neighborhood of Scarborough/Toronto.

This event focused on the stories, careers, and expertise of four successful women from different backgrounds. If you weren’t there you definitely missed out! But here’s a summary of our superstars:

Lorna Green: a trailblazer in the Caribbean tech industry with decades of experience developing digital technology products as a corporate manager and entrepreneur. This Jamaican national 🇯🇲 is the author of children’s book series “Beng & Friends” which follows a group of young Black children and their parents as they discover more about advanced careers in the technology sector.

Virgini Mubarak: an undisputed expert in the North American engineering community who has made key contributions in quality assurance and safety across several industries. Originally from Egypt 🇪🇬 she is invested in empowering girls to become future engineering professionals.

Lesley Page: this formerly high earning corporate executive quit her job to become a high flying private pilot! A Canadian 🇨🇦 member of the Ninety-Nines she continues the legacy of women in flight as a motivational speaker teaching girls how to overcome obstacles and fears to soar towards lofty goals.

Dr. Bhairavi Shankar: a respected planetary science researcher and geographic information systems (GIS) innovator who turned her passion for science communication into a dynamic startup consulting company. This Tamil woman hailing from India 🇮🇳 has spent nearly a decade elevating the aspirations of children to design innovations for human life in space and on other worlds.

And as a bonus the event also featured Mya Gomez: a multi-talented and bilingual young woman considering a future in the coolest career in STEM 😏 Mya has roots in Trinidad 🇹🇹 and has been positively influenced by her father to advance her knowledge and skills in science. She volunteered her time to ably assist Ciaran in his workshop; even leading a fingerprint demo/experiment for our participants! We wish her the best as she weighs her options for university next academic year 🙏🏾🤞🏾

Thank you all for supporting this event! Happy Women’s History Month!
