Episode 4: Winnie Looby & Kinda Abujbarah

Dr. Winnie Looby and Dr. Kinda Abujbarah connect briefly about Dr. Abujbarah’s experience with cerebral palsy and how it led her to travel from Amman, Jordan, to the United States to pursue greater educational opportunities — and how COVID-19 has impacted opportunity at universities.

“I wrote my whole dissertation with a typist in another state. So, technology and being able to work remotely, I’ve been doing that since before COVID, but I thought COVID might open more opportunities for me to work remotely.”
