"This is the first time I speak in public about having children. As a sociologist I am aware of many studies about the biases working mothers face. But one step to fight them is by creating visibility. This project progresses in the right direction, therefore I am happy to participate. Seeing professors, at ETH and beyond, who happen to be mothers are a great personal inspiration to me. I travel a lot for work - I feel like I am always ont he move. Obviously, this is not easy to combine with a family life, but I am privileged in many ways. I love what I do and I have a fantastic partner who supports me mentally and practically."
