Episode 25: Black in Geochemistry

On Episode 25 of Black in Science, I sat down with Dr. Jeremy C. Williams, who’s currently on a pre-tenure sabbatical from his position as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geology and Kent State University. To open, Dr. Williams recounts his childhood while growing up in Atlanta, Georgia before transitioning into his time as an undergraduate at Hampton University. After sharing what moment motivated him to switch from pre-med to a Marine and Environmental Science major, Jeremy shares his experience as a Ph.D candidate in the Environmental Science program at the University of Massachusetts, Boston. After Dr. Williams recounts his time as a post-doc at Ohio State University, he then segues into the research his lab currently focuses on regarding the Permian Triassic Extinction and Black Shale Geochemistry. To close things out, Jeremy describes his mental health struggles in the midst of the pandemic before disclosing his thoughts on the importance of being unapologetic about your passions and persevering through trials and tribulations If you’ve enjoyed listening to Jeremy’s episode of the podcast and wish to contact him with questions, feel free to reach out via: Twitter: drjdubbz Email: jwill243@kent.edu
