Abstract
As an underrepresented scientist navigating her way through the field, I have either noticed or experienced barriers at key stages in the scientific journey that hinder the representation and visibility of diverse people in the community. To see a face like mine represented in science requires intentional action to turn a system not initially built to include all into a community that reflects, embraces, and celebrates people from all demographics.
