Winning the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Postdoctoral Fellowship has been a major milestone in my career, allowing me to pursue research I am passionate about and relocate to Chicago, a hub for anthropological thought. After years abroad—as an international student in Vienna, an exchange student in Istanbul, and an intern in New Delhi—I have learned that building a life and career in science relies on the generosity of those who open their doors to you. In North America, the ASCINA Mentoring Program helped me find some of those doors.
